    This is another version of Cooterville, have used the image before but
    never with this technique.

    Painted Benson with custom palette, exported .psd to photoshop
    and ran through LucisArt Winslow and blended layers, textured.
    "May" be a bit much foreground, but love the colors!!

    Thanks for looking and c/c....not a theme entry

    Dave, Nice image toned down greatly from the original with a nice use of filters. The reflection is a strong element within the image and gives it strength. Well handled...

    thanks friends....also wanted to mention that I desaturated a lot of blue from the water to get the gray look

    Another great version, Dave. Really like the colors in the reflections, nice job with the desaturating - just enough.

    Very nice, Dave. Love the colors and treatment. For my taste, I wish the reflection had a little more detail to it, but that's just my opinion. Well done.

    Dave, Cooterville looks like a very magical place! I love the image - especially the softer, muted colors and the
    reflection is beautiful:)

    Beautiful and serene. I love the original as much as the treatment. I want to be there instead of sitting at this computer.
