    Nice shot. The warped effect you applied on the tree along with the colors made this image surreal, and I like it. Thanks for sharing. thumb.gif

    Thanks for looking and commenting....

    I use Elements 9...Go to filters then distort and then liquify....If you give it a try I would use a picture with a lot of saturation .....

    Ok, let me preface this by - this is SFW, but not something normally in this thread. Also, no excuses for the RAW file being so crappy, but I wasn't there to shoot, just to hang with friends, and had my settings for the bright sun that just happened to preface the rain right before this shot. That being said, the only things I did to this shot were bump up the exposure, tweak little things here and there, and LIQUIFY!!! This girl is lovely in person and sweet, and this was a terrible pose that the owner of AZDRIFT liked for some reason, this is just my efforts to edit it for him. rolleyes1.gif Phew, so after this novel, on to the side by side comparison of the lovely wonders of the Liquify tool :D

    Hi Gary. I also thought your treatment of an early morning was a great one. Lots of fun had by all, right?

    I have been wanting PS3,4, or5 but it's out of my budget--I may just have to give Elements a try.
    Thank you

    Hi Lizz.....Thanks for the nice comment....

    1246468634_PD74i-L.jpg

    This is how I was going to show it.. I used Nikon Capture and Color EFEX PRO to get it to this point. I used Elements 9 just for changing the tree.....

    I have used Elements for several years.....It is Excellent in my opinion...:D

    If you want more info. about Color EFEX Pro google it, or drop me and email
