Nice pic, but I do not prefer the emboss effect here - the sky looks like a wall. In other words, the image looks like it is painted on a wall and not as a photograph. Why not try to undo the effect and post the raw image here, for comparison?

Ladyhawkva,

The filtered effect looks good and tidy but I too would like to see the original picture for comparison.

Okay, I found the original:

NormallyI don't like add on filters - must be the old fogey in me!. But that emboss effect makes a fairly ordinary picture into something special.

I immediately tried the emboss filter from PE4 on a similar scene, but all I achieved was a silver/grey engraving...Fred

Looks good, gives the picture almost a 3/D effect. I think if you like the effects of a certain filter...stay with it regardless of what anyone else thinks ! Jim

Nicely composed, Ladyhawk, with or without any filtering!

Good composition. (The line of thirds rule really works here) and for me, the application of the filter is a winner.

cheers,

Max
