    Default Lone tree in snow

    Attached Images Attached Images
     
    Our snow is melting, so I'd better get this in now. Applied Topaz Simplify Bizsim, created oval on separate layer, and applied "Let it Snow" texture from Muffet.com at 47%. One problem....the bottom of the tree. It is cut off by a snowbank and I don't like the look of it, but not sure what to do. Any suggestions?

    I like what you created. The colors are refreshing and work very well with the subject.

    I added to the hidden parts of the trunk and branches using the Finger Painting option of the Smudge tool in Photoshop.

    I like the soft colors and look of this snowy tree. Nicely done, with the snow surrounding it. Dennis has a good solution. I'd crop the image a bit all around, especially from the bottom. I like how the blue in the tree is picked up in the snow. Lovely work.

    Hazel, I really like the colors and and texture you applied. I think Dennis solved your trunk problem and I think a crop from the bottom would help also.
