This is a night image of the lighthouse. I tweaked in Lightroom then oil painted it using the new oil paint filter in CS6 (of with I like a lot!... then was worth the $180 upgrade , IMHO).

I was aiming for a "Thomas Kinkade" look..

very nice work, thanks for sharing. John

Beautiful picture and processing, not so beautiful logo right over the point of interest. The "line" leading from the chimney to top of tree on right is a bit distracting.

Looks like CS6 COULD be worth the upgrade for this type of oil paint filter!

Jo,

Thanks. I hate using watermarks but such is life on the internet nowadays.

The "line" is a very thin line of wispy dark clouds in the original image. I left it in as I didn't see it as an issue.

IMHO, the CS6 oil paint filter is worth the $199 upgrade.

Looks great. Overkill on the watermark. At that resolution, I don't think anyone could do much with it.

Thanks Tony. The watermark is my hosting website WM options. I can't control the size, just the location and opacity.
