After The Snow

It snowed all day yesterday, and so I've had some time to play around on the computer with some new programs I've discovered.  More about those later, but here's a picture I took and transformed into what looks like a water color painting.  If you look at the larger picture (click on the one below to enlarge it) you might be able to see that it looks like it was painted on canvas.  I did this by combining 3 photos taken with different exposures (it's called HDR photography) and then used a circle paint effect from another program I have.  Pretty neat!
