I've been trying to find ways to use some of Elements' odder filters. This photo took well to lots of different filters, so it seemed to be a good candidate for more radical experimentation. I ended up with the Note Paper filter. Once I'd reduced the opacity and played around a little with levels and contrast, I ended up with something rather like a silk screen.

  1. I think the filter made the image a bit "richer" in color and shadows. I love watching you "play"!!

  2. I am really inspired by your use of filters. I am now starting to play too. I like this picture with the filter - it is a bit more graphic and stands out.

    Answer: You are quite right, the Swedish flag is yellow and blue.
