A "Cool" Tiger
Uploaded: August 08, 2006 11:44:57
Impossible! In front of me were 30 vertical wires close together to contain the beast. The tiger was another 40 feet away, and too dull to budge. Every piece of the scenery was virtually colorless, including the faded tiger. Then came PSE, nik filters, buZZ and flood (the tiger needed a little cool water since it was such a hot day--95 degrees!). What a transformation. Frankly, the photo is worthless, but the "painting" of the photo is much improved. Do you agree?

Nice capture. Love the effect. Love the reflection. #499492Patsy Diana August 08, 2006
Interestingly beautiful effect. I should try that painting effect more often. The few times I tried it I immediately reverted back to the original pictures because it turned out terrible. But yours turned out great. Guess it depends on the picture. Nice going. #3140315Colette M. Metcalf August 08, 2006
