The Narrows on the Essex River (Posterized Photo)

The Narrows on the Essex River (Posterized Photo), a photo by randubnick on Flickr.

Here's another image from last weekend's adventure: a boat ride on the Essex River. This is a place called "The Narrows". I liked the view, with the interesting shore line, the boats, and the houses. I tried to get the detail so I zoomed in, but I was using my iPhone camera, so the resulting image had a pretty soft focus. So today I opened the original photo and used Painter to posterize the image, and this is the result. I also used Painter to create a digital woodcut of the same scene. I plan to post that here tomorrow.
