Wow, this looks just like an oil painting. If you don't mind I would love to know how this effect was accomplished. I really love this image!!!!! #421350

Thank you for your encouraging comments on my photograph. It's something wonderful how all I do is point and shoot and God takes the pictures!
As far as editing, there wasn't much done. I used PSP8 and did the following:
Resize, Auto Fix, adjust Contrast/Clarify (set at 1), despeckle, and finally, unsharp mask set at 1.
Then I ran the inmage through Neat Image to clean up any noise or distortions from compression.

Truth is, even with all that, this image did not change much at all from the original.

Hope that helps and thanks again!
God bless you and yours. #424077
