kaolin fire presents :: art :: Digitally Enhanced

This came from a digital photo of a picture of a bench and trees, from a walk with my parents in Sacramento. Which are still entirely visible. I did amazingly little "enhancement"--shifted the color just a tad, made a second layer, gaussian blurred it, and used "lighten". Stunning. "darken" is almost as stunning. Hard to say. Perhaps I'll revisit this. :)
