I love this! The colors, comp, the simplicity, all of it! But what did you do to make it Photo Art?

Chris - Thanks for your comment. I used a program called Topaz Simplify to turn this image into Photo Art. You can try it out yourself with a free 30 day trial. It's a lot of fun!

A very pastoral scene, and the Simplifier you applied is ideal here.

Gorgeous! The treatment you gave this is perfect IMO, and though I'm sure it was a pleasantly beautiful shot naturally I'm awfully glad this was my first view of your image. Outstanding.

The painterly effects here work perfectly! What a beautiful scene. Your use of simplify really does a great job of showing off all the layers and colors in the trees.
