Well, I decided to do another photo alteration of a photograph I took in 2009 at our local arboreteum. It's a statue of a little girl holding two bowls which act as bird feeders. Anyway, I spent some time trying different effects on this second photo and finally decided to go with the following alterations. Using Paint Shop Pro 8, I reduced the picture to two colors, with the blue components selected, Stucki Error Diffusion and the Weighted palette chosen. Then I made the image Greyscale. The result is below.
"Arboretum Girl"
I think it has a rather gothic, unworldly quality. The image is 300 dpi and would be 4" x 6" if printed. Click on it for a larger view.

Great effects, I love photo manipulations. This is awesome, with the lighting, colors and textures, I think photos of statues are really fabulous to look at! Well done!
