Laundry Day in Venice
The original was just a so-so shot of laundry hanging on a clothes line outside an apartment in Venice. I think the fractalius filter made it a much more interesting photo. I applied the filter with some adjustments then painted out some of the effect using a layer mask as I felt the original application was a bit "heavy handed". Thanks to Denise for the tip.
Joe, Love the way the frac texture changed orientation from shape to shape in your image. Wonderful job of processing and masking the effect!
Hi Joe, nice job of controlling the fract effect. As you know - "a little goes a long way". Interesting composition with the colors, patterns, and textures. Good job!

Beautiful PP !
Suits well for this scene. Never seen it been applied before for windows/building etc.
The filter has brought out some nice lines and designs in the hanging clothes and the window curtains.
Might crop a bit off the left (i.e. removing the window portion in the edge).
Very nice treatment of image, just the right amount of filter. Transformed it into a pleasing composition with watercolor feel.
Joe, Great use of the filter.It adds a bit of punch to a regular scene, very cool! I might clean up the left edge if it were mine. Fantastic work!
Joe, This really came out nicely. I like all the different lines that frac created in the different fabrics. Well done

That's a really neat effect.
I love the colors, too - very Venice.
When using frac I have found that I usually like one thing "unfracted" in the image. This is an exception, I like the effect to the entire image, very well done in my opinion!
