Nice image!

But isn’t being on Forbidden Drive forbidden? You’re such a bad boy!

HAHA. I don't know the origin of how the road (now it's more of a "path") got it's name, but no laws broken this time.

An ideal subject for this type of effect and an attractive image. I’m intrigued as to whether you masked the effect to retain the original ‘twiggy’ areas or whether the effect simply doesn’t take to the lack of colour there?

Thank you. It's a very simple app to use. Just press a button and adjust the slider from 0-100% depending on the amount of the effect you want to apply.

I like it. I wouldn't want all my images done that way but it's a nice rendering for this one.

I agree. It’s nice to have some fun once in a while.

This was taken along Forbidden Drive in the Chestnut Hill area of Philly. Although the original looks really good, I might like this version better. An artsy feel thanks to Prisma. Check out the download.

Beautiful set. We where there 7 yrs ago and when I look at my pictures they are nice but no picture will ever be as nice as seeing it in person.

I agree

Great Shots: "Out of there by 2:00" implies you were in a hurry, but (just my opinion and not meant to get in a P---ing contest). for me, you have to take your time and let the awesome beauty of that place soak into your soul.

No, I was on a tight schedule. Had a Tee time down in Sedona for later that afternoon. Plus, I saw/did everything I wanted to do.

I wouldn't mind hiking down. It's the back up that would concern me.

As they warn- the hike down is optional, the hike up is mandatory!

They're all very nice but my favorite is #3 because of the Colorado River. I've been there three times but never attempted the six mile hike and I'm getting too old to attempt it now.

If I ever make it there again and I'm still in relatively good shape, I plan to hike the 12 miles down to Phantom Ranch.

Interesting how personal choice varies. My preferred one is no. 2 by a great stretch

Of the 150 or so shots I took, #2 is my favorite also.

Really like the composition in #1.

Thanks. Did you notice the person standing on the edge of the cliff?
