Chimneys in England (Posterized Photo)

This image began as one of the first photos I took after landing in England, just about this time last year. We arrived at Manchester airport, on a rainy morning, picked up a rental car and drove toward Sheffield and then Hull. I was in the passenger's seat and started taking pictures. One look at the houses and you know you are in Britain. I love those chimneys! Tonight I edited the original photo in Painter. I adjusted the brightness, and then used color overlays and selective posterizing to get this image. I cropped the image once in Painter, and then cropped it again in iPhoto. I also created a digital woodcut from the same image, and I plan to post it here tomorrow.
