I like Metzker's approach to trees and landscape/.
I ended up fiddling with this in oil paint filter, gave it a little something extra, which is not very like his work but I like it.....and I am setting the rules lol
@mzzhope I have just been out under the trees trying the 'out of focus in the foreground, in focus in the background ' trick, some great results to be had, try it out
