Romance in Silhouette
Uploaded: April 04, 2008
Resubmit of accidentally deleted previous EFP ; ( However, I did make some changes as well so it's kind of NEW AGAIN! ; )
I saturated the color some, increased the contrast a little, cropped it differently, sharpened it, added a light vignette, and added the birds using brushes (I slightly adjusted them...) from www.brushes.obsidiandawn.com thanks to Stephanie ; )
I must admit, I like this version MUCH better!! ; )
