I have some pictures from the St.Louis Botanical Garden that are more snapshot than real pictorials. I thought I would try and see what could be done. This image shows the transform. I was looking for images that would print well on standard watercolor stock (90 lb.). I was able to produce a decent print(the wife even liked it). The print is softer than shown here.

So far I can only approximate the process, not duplicate it. There is enough variation in the originals and use of the effects to produce different results on each attempt.

Any feedback on using other than photo stock for printing would be appreciated
