This was an image from a Panasonic FZ30 with way deep DOF.
Rand it through DAP(Cezanne) and used a paint thickness mask in an alpha
channel with light effects(read how on the DAP forum).
kb restrictions force very low res here, but see 100% crop below
from white outlined area.
Dave, I really like that paint thickness mask that you did. I will have to read up on it and give it a try. The 100% crop is amazing. I'd hang this on my wall-it's cool!!
I bet some gadgethead would buy this from you...that is really neat! I, too, love the "thick paint" treatment...it really works here. The colors also give it lots of pop and an almost abstract quality.
