Oops.. too much text for the 'description' box! To continue... Some years ago I produced a simple two tone version on lith film - a B&W print of this was published in a photo magazine, and a colour 'in-camera' posterisation has graced the front cover of a climbing mag. For this latest manifestation I scanned the lith tranny, promoted the black part to a layer, then played around with various gradients on the background. In the end the simplist seemed the best and this is one of the pre-sets in Photoshop. #1992
