Well, if finally took the plunge. I upgraded my PhotoShop 7 to CS3. I gotta say, for as many differences, it is nice that all the things I like are still there the way I expect them. I’m getting to play with it, though not as much as I would like.
I also, recently, bought several of the Alien Skin filters for PhotoShop; it is a quite the adventure to discover all the effects one can achieve. I settled on
- Snap Art
- Xenofex
- Nature
- Impact
One images I’ve played with already is shot of storm coming over West Lake in Okoboji, Iowa, last July (2006). The original () isn’t much of anything,
but I kinda like the after version.
