Great image and effects here, Steve.

Thank you, Dominick. Lately I haven't been doing much with frames & effects, so I thought I'd try one just to break up the monotony. On this image I selectively adjusted the color balance to 'rich it up' a little, and tried a canvas texture on the image itself, a sandstone texture on the 'mat' and created the brick wall with the texturizer. The drop shadows were done with layers, feathered selection and brightness/contrast adjustments. There is some great information on creating drop shadows and other photoshop effects as well as a lot of programming advice available on Dr. Thaddeus Ozone's sites if he's still there.

BetterPhoto Websites: If you see an orange website link directly under the photographer's name, it's totally okay. It's not spam. The reason: BetterPhoto is the one that offers these personal photography websites. We are supporting our clients with those links.

Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
