On a cloudy and rain Saturday the children's strollers patiently wait for their precious cargo and as I viewed them on this particular day they became more and more animal like in nature and so I thought I would try some effects to extend that animal like feel.

In CS3 I used levels and curves, then in Microsoft Digital I used the paint rough paper effect and then back to CS3 for the equalize effect.

Comments by Rory Hudson on Mon, 06/20/11 06:39 The effect you used on number 1 is really effective and creates a most attractive pattern, Jan. Comments by Nathan Leonard Kern on Mon, 06/20/11 09:51 I like both the original and worked image. they both give me the impression of a flying pig. Comments by Sandi MacDonald on Mon, 06/20/11 13:15 I like the OP the best Jan...very nice colors and abstract.;-) Comments by Linda Frey on Tue, 06/21/11 14:19 I like the pig. A nice textured little piglet. Comments by Pietro Cecchi on Tue, 06/21/11 15:25 I like the original and the others, Jan... :) Thank you so much for the beautiful pictures from Winnipeg. Comments by Maria Salvador on Sun, 06/26/11 07:34 The OP for me too. The effect works really fine. Also like the flying pig, although the crop seems a little bit tight, most likely because there was unwanted stuff around.
