Thought I'd enter this in the b/w challenge. It's a local farm just outside of town. I used a pencil sketch effect on it from Smart photo editor.

This is an interesting framing of the farm scene. I like the creative venture.

I have a bunch of these "artistic" settings, Carol. I typically avoid all of them except for the occasional use of watercolor, but you've used the pencil sketch to create an interesting border. Never thought of that before. Sometimes I miss the Midwest. I have some photos from my trip back to Illinois a few years ago. This shot has inspired me to take a look at them and see what I have.

I do like the results of your creative editing, and this I predict will do well in the challenge. tigs=^..^=

Carol, you've used an original approach for 'vignetting' this very fine B&W image ('vignetting' between quotes is in fact the by you called 'pencil sketch effect' to achieve a fine border).
Good entry for the Wednesday B&W challenge, and well done!

You know of my fondness for barns and later this month I will be heading back to the U.S.A. in hopes of hunting down a few. Beautifully presented, Carol.

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust
