MGlennn, Robert, Lowolf,
Thank you all for taking the time to check out my photos and your kind words.......
Robert ..... no filters were use, but rather I blended the photo with other photos. This is a process I really enjoy doing. Sometimes the results are minor and in some cases, a totally abstract photo is the result. Sometimes I work for hours on a photo and end up with nothing worth keeping ..... very frustrating. In some cases, just when I thought I couldn't save a photo, I try one more step and come up with something that I like. I didn't crop this photo because where I have it on the Internet, I wanted all the photos to be the same size to have a more uniform look to the page. However, the slide show I made with my re-touched photos, I did indeed crop out the person on the left.
Thanks again for looking and taking the time to write me ............
Bob
