favourite photoart of the year

For the last PhotoArt Friday of this year Bonnie invited us to look back over our work and pick a favourite to share.

Looking back my favourites all have a painterly feel and most use the artistic filters within PSE.  The last 2 that I posted are amongst my favourite for the year but I decided to focus on earlier pieces and chose this one which also has probably my most commonly focussed subject – the sea.  I have a print of this piece and love the movement in it.

 

Looking forward to more photoart creation and sharing next year and many thanks to Bonnie for providing a forum to share every Friday on PixelDust PhotoArt

    Lovely painterly processing on this, and what a good "subject" the water always is

    Exquisite, Helena!! I really feel like I will BE swallowed up in the water. I've yet to really get the hang of the painterly sorts of effects in PSE8, but seeing this and some others I'm starting to realise I just don't yet KNOW HOW they work!!!

    EnJOY!!

    It is indeed stunning, and your work is so beautifully done. You are inspiring me to think about learning this too ... (though I don't think my photography is up to yours!)

    Another fabulous photo & use of textures Helena. I love to work with sea pictures too they seem to come alive with Bonnies textures.
