It was instant love at first site when I saw your picture! It's soft, warm and comforting. I am curious as to which filter/filters you used.

Ray and Judith the effects were created with the buzz filter (simplifier #1) after a little manipulation of colors with Hue/Saturation.
Holly, "Hi." Nice to see you too. Where have your travels taken you? #2271976

Ronald Balthazor January 10, 2006

Your comments are much appreciated, Ashley, Bill, Wendy, Jon (you're right I erased the effects on the person), Crinne, Tessa, Salleh (see www.fo2pix.com for the buzz filter), Tarra, Diana, Mary, and Wanda (Of course, it's Roy Rogers' version of 'Happy Trails To You.'). #2273421

Jenny Bosmans January 10, 2006

Congratulations on this beautiful POTD, Ronald!! #2273437

January 10, 2006

Something is surreal about this photo.The leaves and the trees look like they were painted since details were somewhat smoothen out. I wonder what kind of film/digital tweaks were made to make this photo look like it does? #2273512

January 10, 2006

Nice effect, beautiful colours, well done. But: I don't like the title of this photo, because there is absolutely no impression of rain. #2273748

Sharon Day January 10, 2006

Beautiful image, Ronald!!! Big congratulations on POTD!!! #2273912

January 10, 2006

Not a bad shot. Cograts on the POTD pick. I'm not a big fan all the photoshop effects - this looks like a paint by numbers thing I did in the 60's. Not a bad representation of fall colors. everybody else seems to like the effects - just not my cup of tea. #2274045

Ronald Balthazor January 10, 2006

Thank you for the feedback, Jenny, Euclid, Johan, and Sharon.
Johan, I'm afraid the buzz filter eliminated any appearance of falling rain. Only the wet road remains. The title is actually tonque-in-cheek. I can't sing, in fact, I find it hard to play the radio. #2274048

Anita Taylor January 10, 2006

Lovely colors and scene, Ronald! Congratulation on POTD! #2274506
