Salzburg FarmWhen converting an image through the use of computer filters you need to start with a good composition.  The filters may affect the mood and style in the process but the underlying graphics are required as a foundation to build upon.

The graphics in this composition lead the eye further and further into the scene.  The leading lines of the shadows and fence take the viewer from the foreground to the barn and then across the meadow into the woods beyond.  There are two sloped diagonal lines created by the foreground hill and the meadow that converge at the corner of the barn about one third from the right hand frame, a very pleasing composition with a feeling of balance and tranquility.

The painterly effect combined with the tinting has the look of a watercolor or ink wash print.  This image is a good example of what can be accomplished when a photo-artist starts with an excellent photograph.
