John,

I thought it was one of the artistic group at first, but cannot find anything that comes close to the "contour" line effect. I used to have a mirror lens that did something similar…

Many thanks

What do you know about "The Time Man"? I’m looking for someone to produce canvas wraps and the price seems good.

Chris,

Only that he has a puzzling image on his website. I’m actually asking this on behalf of someone in another group. The consensus there seems to be leaning towards vectoring in something like Illy.
Canvas wraps? Would they be of the "off the shoulder" variety? 😉

I guess this is a new thread re the some photo from earlier today. I didn’t see it and posted to the older thread, so I am putting it in here, too, in case people are looking at this more current thread. I appologize to everyone who reads this twice.

——————-

At the risk of offending member of this group, I have to admit I use PSE, not PS because it does everything I want. However, before PSE, when dinosaurs roamed the earth and people still shot film, I used to scan negatives and work with them with an ancient program called Adobe Photodeluxe (the 1998 version). It was sort of the the forefunner of Elements.

I couldn’t get your effect in Elements so I tried is Photodeluxe, which sometimes produces different results the Elements.

Here’s what I tried.

First, I softened it to get rid of jaggedness.
Then I used the Accent Edges filter to start to build the contours Then I used Posterize to enhance the contours and get rid of jaggedness.

I got reasonably close considering I only worked about 20 minutes on it and didn’t do any hand-retouching.

I picked this image to see if I could get the contours in the skin tones.

I hope this gets you closer or inspires someone who is better than me to find a way to duplicate the process. Good luck.

Burton,

Thanks for the info and the offer. As I said, this isn’t for me but I would still be interested to see what you can do with the following, particularly the foliage.
The image is on Pixentral at the following link. http://tinyurl.com/99caf

Thanks for that, like you said its a bit small to be able to judge the effect. I tried Rob’s method on it with a mod to the blur setting and got this, not a million miles from yours http://tinyurl.com/9whq3,
