Norman, You captured a fantsticly dynamic moment. Great Tapestry effects. I like your bike series. #214833Norman P. Banks February 12, 2005
Hey Boris,Thanks for checking it out! I used to race and coach so cycling is a subject after my own heart! (smile)
I like the tapestry effect, but I think I should have toned the yellow down a bit. I think its a little too bright and makes me squint! (smile)
What do you think?

Hi Norm..I missed this one, too??!!!Norman P. Banks March 15, 2005
Hey Jane, thanks for taking the time to catch up on my humble works!(big smile)When I posted this image I felt it might have been too bright! But now after not looking at it for awhile, I kinda like it. I spent many a day riding the pace line just like these guys and it brings back often painful but good memories.

Thanks Debra! #1182449Linda McLellan December 11, 2006
I like this one very much. How did you achieve this effect? #3690464Norman P. Banks December 11, 2006
Hi Linda,This image was done awhile back and I didn't keep notes, but if I remember correctly, the texturizer tool - canvas & burlap was used in combination in construction of the image.
