I spotted this artwork outside a hardware store in Alpine, Texas of this cowboy on a wagon smoking. First processed RAW file in Aperture 3 then made some major conversion in Perfect Photo Suite 6 to get the old time look I wanted. I thought the clouds just added that smoking effect to the cigarette hanging from his mouth.
Comments welcome. Still real busy in the Medical Practice
but hope to get back soon.
