I used Mezzotint.Gaussian Blur, and Fog to create the misty background that was in the backyard this afternoon.

Gorgeous rain droples. It looks so bleak and cold there.
ReplyDeleteI love the filtered image, looks more mysterious and shadowy! Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteReally created a moody image with the processing. Does look very forbidding.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like eyes looking me. Neat.
