Grand Canal at dusk oil rendition

[rpcrowe]

I was looking through my Venice images and thought that this shot of the Grand Canal at dusk might look good as an oil. What do you think?



When I first discovered the CS-6 Oil Paint Filter, I tended to overuse it. However, now I try to be more selective in its use...

Richard, it looks real good. Very nice photograph.

Great photo and an elegant application of the technique. I'd be proud to hang that, prouder to have made it.

Hi Richard.

I like the texture on the buildings and water, but it bothers me when I see it in the sky. because it looks unnatural and noisy. If the the texturing is on a separate layer, I would try masking some of the sky's texture out. I know it is a personal preference thing, and we won't all agree.

I think that the sky would look a bit better if I cloned in some clouds. That's my next project. I have CD's full of cloud images but, haven't gotten around to replacing bare skies (YET!).
