Sailing Away from Costa Rica....

We took a cruise last spring, down to the Panama Canal. 
On the way back, the ship stopped in Costa Rica.
It's a beautiful place.
Storms were forming, over the mountains, as we sailed away at sunset.

Created with:
My Image
Kim Klassen texture, Thursday
Pixel Dust texture, Silent Memory
Pixel Dust texture, Blue Me Away
I flattened these layers before I wrote down the recipe....drats!
Framed it up with a vintage frame from Coffeeshop.  I used the black & white conversion and the vintage texture layers.

Here's the original..

I'm joining Bonnie, over at Pixel Dust Studio, for Photo Art Friday.

    Amazing! What a vintage look you have given your photograph! I love it.

    I often get so involved with my processing that I don't even name my layers ... bad habit when I want to share the steps ... I'm consoled hearing I'm not the only one.

    Thank you for the link and for sharing your fine work on Photo Art Friday, Linda.

    Your treatment of a rather typical holiday shot turns it into something really interesting that toys with one's concept of time. Inspired.
