A friend and I went to Chicago last saturday and saw a man named Eugene Burger do a lecture on performing magic. I have been doing magic as a hobby for a few years now. Mr. Burger is considered one of the best, if not the best, magician in Chicago. We got to the lecture early and grabbed front row seats. Armed with my Pentax I ended up with about a half a dozen shots I consider worth keeping.

I was fooling around with the filters in PSE 4 and ended up with this image using poster edge. I like the look of the print even better than what it looks like on the monitor.

Pugdaddy,

I love that effect as well. I did a photo of my wife like that. She didn't care for it, but I thought it was pretty cool.

Good job!

Poster edges can do a cool job on flowers, too. I have this one. It also printed extremely well:

Nice colors, Sanarita. I wouldn't even guess that was done from a photo. This is going to put all of the painting artists out of work, you know. ;)
