Welcome to Graphics Challenge #102! Crisp days and cool nights, leaves changing color,
a whiff of woodsmoke in the air...these are signs of Autumn, and this week's graphics
challenge theme. Try to let the end of Summer go, and come up with an Autumn image. Have
fun and use your imagination!
This image started with a photo taken in the summer time at Descanso Gardens in La Canada
Flintridge, California. I removed the two people in the photo, changed the summer colors to
autumn colors by increasing the red in the midtones, the shadows and the highlights (Enhance,
Adjust Color, Color Variations). Used the Dry Brush and Cutout Filters, and Colorful Center
from Effects. Added another layer and filled it with black for the background color. Used
the Cookie Cutter Tool to crop the image and position it on the black background.
