    this is an old headstone from Old Sheldon Church in Sheldon, SC. i converted it to b&w, applied a dry brush to it and then added a spotlight. any suggestions appreciated.

    thanks for looking!

    Wow Harold even his name sounds old! The slanted headstone looks old and the B&W conversion really adds to it. The spotlight makes it look dark and spooky!Well done.

    Like the B and W Harold, gives it a feeling of loneliness and desolation. Wonder what it would look like with the spotlight on the tomb and everything else darker? Just an idea for you.

    Neat Harold Might want to orient the spotlight in the same direction of the shadows !!! All about feel and this has it !!!

    hey guys, check this out and let me know what you think. i went back to the original and readjusted the spotlight and added a border. that's after downloading the onOne Photoframe software. (thanks alfred!!!!) took three hours to download.

    let me know what you think!!!! after looking at the original, i like it without the dry brush.

    Harold, I agree that it looks better without the dry brush, but personally I prefer it without the border. Very nice image. Love the feel of it!
