Spectacular color! #4124673Chris Budny April 03, 2007
Thank you, Paul, Billy, Carolyn, Dominick, Audrey & Shirley! I was happy with this after just Kaleidoscoping my river image... but the Overlay & other applied filters really made those colors so much more dramatic! And I like the Skew on this, which pushes it slightly out of that "typical" Kaleidoscope look. #4125356Bob Cournoyer April 03, 2007
