Fence Painting [Contest Finalists November 2004]
Uploaded: November 01, 2004 04:21:45
Shot at Mabry Mill. Couldn't pass up the fence. Thought the effects added (Buzz and Oil Pastel) made it look a bit like a painting, hence the title. Did a little adjusting to saturation and levels as well for the final result. Now I need to make another trip to capture the images I've thought of since being home (LOL)!!
