Overlooking the Lake

I quickly created a random landscape in Artrage. I started to feel it becoming very lacklustre, so decided tweaks were needed.

I opened the image in Paintshop Pro  and made a few tweaks, adding clouds, the Sun and a few birds to bring it more alive.

I tweaked it some more in Paintshop Pro, altering the colours slightly.

I then edited the picture in Photoshop Elements, and tried to give it an almost old-fashioned photo feel.

I then toned it down slightly. I think the last three versions are my top three.
