Now it looks like an Edward Gorey print! I used the Graphic Pen filter on a layer over the orignal, at about 70% opacity.

  1. I think I like the orignal better -- you can read the gravestones.

  2. I agree with Jo, I like the original better maybe drop the opacity on the filter by a bit more and enhance the saturation of the trees in the back so you don't loose their detail to the filter

  3. Count me as a 3rd. I like the original one better. I think this was an excellent shot - love the mood the bare trees give this image and also the specs of color which sticks out in the original image. This needs no editing at all! You are good! :)

  4. I'm the odd one out. I love the Graphic Pen filter. It gives the photo a creepy intensity that grabs you. When viewing the enlarged photo, the little touches of red flowers and flag stripes add to the ambiance.

  5. You are right about the creepy Edward Gorey effect on this one. I think it is fun to play with photos, whether it improves them or not.

  6. The snow sure brightens the whole picture! As for which one, well, I like them both! No help at all...sorry! : )

  7. I am a huge fan of Edward Gorey and an even bigger fan of any effect that improves the dark and macabre tones of an image. A cemetery deserves this type of treatment. Well done!
