I used a HDR type process to get a texture out of the image, merging a high contrast and low contrast version of the shot.

Very artistic processing, Don. Nice!

Thanks Toad

I would have just nipped off the top half-inch or so here: those textures are excellently-captured and the processing really works in tandem with the subject. I'd have that on my wall without question; well done Don, truly.

Thanks Zig. I can send you a full sized copy if you want to print it.

[Zig]

PMed you Don.
