I went out shooting this morning only to get caught in a downpour that didn't want to let up. My rain jacket was just short enough to drain into my back pocket, which caused my jeans to become drenched. I only made a few shots before retreating to the comfort of a restaurant.
The image above was created from a shot I took while on the ferry from Victoria to Vancouver. It's a shot of some stairs (and their interestingly shaped shadows) that are used by the ferry crew. The image has been heavily processed in Photoshop with inverted colors (which caused the sky to become pink/orange). I also used the find edges filter to outline the edges of objects and much more.

Very nice, Ben. Love the simplicity of the composition.
You are not having one bit of fun are you? [grin]

Haha... welcome to Vancouver, city of rain! It's a shame you're here when it's so wet.. it's a gorgeous place to be in the sunshine I swear!
Well, hopefully you get a chance to dry out your pants and see the beauty sans downpour! Thanks for everything at IE... I feel much more solid in what I'm doing, and why I'm doing it. You're the photoshop-man! :)

Ben,
A little off topic, but I need help from a master. The patch tool and the lasso tool have stopped working in CS3 and CS2. It shows up in the history palette, but I am unable to make selections.
I have reset the tool, reinstalled PS3 to no avail. I am on a background copy layer or background when trying to make the selection and the source button is active. I get a message saying No pixels were selected.
Any suggetions? I have emailed Mr. Kelby, NAPP, Adobe, etc., no answers yet.
Thanks
