Boston Light (Explored)

The Ipernity Group, "The Sunday Challenge" has designated the use of texture as this week's challenge. I had never used textures or the layers features in Photoshop Elements, so for me, it was a real challenge. Thanks to Peter for his help in figuring out how to blend layers. Thanks to Parée
for being the creator of the texture, "Crystal Mountains," which can be found at www.flickr.com/photos/pareeerica/5230064131/in/pool-textures_only.

Esther.. this is beautiful.

I am a Lighthouse fanatic. This is stunning.

As to layers.... the trick is to remember to keep Saving !! Its a real annoyance when you are up to 40 layers on a pic and the power goes down !! SAVE every couple of processes !!
