Inspiring Photo: A blue beach abstract #5658986

A blue beach abstract

Uploaded: February 17, 2008

Description

I used the same initial photo as for my image "Fun on and from the beach". I used thee Line Nova effect in Gimp and then I used MS Paint for filling some black areas with blue color. Finally I used MS Photo Editor for changing the image balance and cropping the image.
