Bald Eagle Lake Sunset - Paint.Net - PhotoPaint - Painter


Sunsets in Autumn are unusually beautiful and over a lake even more so. Here is a piece from a photograph of a sunset over Bald Eagle Lake, near our home.

I opened the photograph in Paint.NET and used a painterly filter on it boosting the coarseness of the brushstrokes. In PhotoPaint I added a watercolor frame with Filter Forge's frames, used the Tone Curve and upped the saturation a bit. I added the wrought iron fence from some Dover Publications clip art.

I saved that file and opened in Painter 8 to Apply Surface Texture> Image Luminance> for texture.
