Painted Trees

Description

I used one photo with many layers, textures and filters from Topaz and Nik to achieve a painted effect.
We experienced so much flooding this spring, that these trees felt the impact of the water.

So many states have been affected by spring storms (and the nasty weather is on going). I am praying for everyone, Heather.

You have turned "Mother's Nature's Anger" into a beautiful work of art reminiscent of the Impressionist Style.

Will these trees survive???

Its been raining (in Philly) for over two weeks. I am not complaning...when I see the devastation in other parts of the country.

Lucky, our chocolate lab, LOVES the rain. I am getting very adept at toweling him down and wiping his paws!(LOL)<:)) #9425556
