Thank you Susan P., Susan E. Sharon, Lori, Karen and Su!

Su, I took this image around 9am, somewhat overcast day in the P mode. Then took the image into Photoshop, duplicated the layer several times, cleaned up houses and stuff in background, did a gaussian blur on one layer, multiplied on another layer and did a screen setting on another layer. Cropped off the bottom half which had the shadow of the tree and voila! #291464

Stanley J. Contrades December 07, 2003

Very, very nice, RED, beautiful colors and thanks for the tech info.
Aloha,

Wow, lots of work! I never thought of duplicating the layers before. I'll try that some time. Thanks for the info! #291729

Roseann E. Dreasher December 07, 2003

Thanks Stan!! Aloha to you!!

Thanks Lori! I ALWAYS duplicate the layer before doing anything in Photoshop. Then I can play with different effects and not affect the original image. : ) #291772
