Thanks for the comments! I have had this image since last spring but I was never happy with it. I decided to try some Topaz effects since I did not have those filters when I was originally working on the image. I am still getting used to the simplify filter but I like what it can do. :-) #7141858Nina Shields February 08, 2009
