From Assateague Island National Seashore in Maryland. I gave this shot a coating of Topaz Simplify because I just wasn't happy with it after editing the original.

You will have to view full size to appreciate the effect.

I like the effect Simplify has on the grassy weeds, Jimbob. I also like how the two fences interact in this image. Bravo!

I like the effect you have used Jimbob. It has now the looks of a painting. Before commenting I always look at all images because I know that one can easily miss some details in a thumbnail view.

Jimbob, who has given the island Assateague its name? It's a really tongue breaker, lol.

Love the by you've done treatment. It gives this image, to a certain extent, a nostalgic and picturesque touch. Well done my friend.

This pony's markings are unusual and pretty JimBob and the pony makes a great focal point of your creation. I like the effect, especially on the tall vegetation in the background.

Love the effect - it really enhances the shot. He's a good looking pony - I especially like the white bands on his front and rear legs. Well done JimBob:-)

Wow, this is Spectacular shot and post work, right into my favs and downloaded. They sure are a very sturdy pony to survive on the island.

Have you ever seen the Chincoteague Festival called "Pony Penning?" I would love to have adopted one of the foals that swim across the last Wednesday in July. What a sight that would be.

Love what you did with the image, Jim. Looks like a watercolor painting. I had a pony as a kid & looks alike like this one. Creative work, Jimbob.

Jimbob - A place I must see, having driven nearby a number of times without stopping. The post-photo work is effective. Thad
