A few shots I've been editing

Hi all,

I didn't get a chance to get out and do any photography this weekend,  so I though I'd post some of the photos I've been editing recently.  Only one of them I posted here before,  it's the lighthouse shot.  For this shot,  I applied a technique called "cross processing,"  the idea is that it's supposed to look like the photo was taken

Okay, a little heavy with the Smudge Tool on that last one.

pfft. Sorry, it was late and I fell asleep with my hands on the controls of photoshop.

And nearly destroyed an entire mountain the process.

That said? I love that lighthouse shot.

Cool.

I think the lighthouse shot represents the opening up of some interesting possibilities as I begin to explore a little more what that kind of tweaking can do to an image.

That's a Great Lakes Light house, right? Just looks like one... don't know which.

it is. It's the Kenosha North Pier lighthouse, and looks pretty much exactly like the one in Racine, just to the north, and probably a dozen others around the lake.
