This gave me such a headache to take - think it was me trying to get to grips with a new camera and the light reflecting off the crystal confusing said camera... am now going to have large glass of red wine and relax..

  1. love the black and white conversion. without the color distraction you get to focus on all the details.

  4. Both are lovely especially the rainbow of colours but the black and white has so much more definition - but that's just my preference. I rarely turn my photos into monochrome but I really like how yours has turned out.\

  13. Talk about strange.... The comment just showed up. Lol! Here's the link you'll need to download the storyboard template. It will be a PSD file. I made it with PSE 9, so I know for sure it will work with that, but it should work with any other versions too. If you need help using it, click on the link I mentioned in my post.

I get many more views on my posts than comments, so please if you drop by, stop and say hello. Otherwise I'll start getting paranoid and neurotic, and worry that nobody likes me... sniff sniff...
