This is one that seems to have lost a lot in the process of re-sizing for the Web. The original looks so much richer, textured and much more interesting.
In France on this last trip, we stayed in a small country hotel for a few days. We were there for a family wedding, and this part of France was not known for tourism. Just real everyday people/everyday scenes in France. The woman who ran/owned the hotel was also the town mayor, and the person who did civil marriage ceremonies. She did not do the Church wedding ceremony, however. It was a small town, and she had a lot of jobs there.
This is the scene that greeted us one morning at breakfast. Some scenes just present themselves ... Glad I had my camera along!
For what it's worth, here's the recipe :
Layer 1) Background image
Layer 2) "15" Texture by ??? ; Multiply Blend Mode at 35% opacity
Layer 3) Golden Contralto Texture ; Soft Light 85%
Layer 4) 2LO 1(4) Texture ; Soft Light 24%
Layer 5) My own Sweet Leaf Texture France 9891 ; Soft Light 65%
Layer 6) Kim Klassen Chalk Magic Texture ; Screen 20%
Layer 7) Hue Saturation adjustment (to tone down the too bright green of the leaves)
