The Launching, above, is yet again an old photo just re-worked now. Yeah, I seem to be stuck on the busy end of the visual, but at least this one's colors have moved away from my somewhat habitual blues and purples. I like it's overall look and wish I could get this sort of water color painting effect more often. But I only seem able to get the effect occasionally; sometimes it just doesn't "show up" no matter I do exactly what's worked with other pictures. (BTW, I don't have Photoshop; I use a combination of other various less sophisticated programs to do my editing. Even if I could afford it, my poor dinosaur of a computer couldn't handle it. So, someday I may join the Photoshop generation, just not yet.)

And here below is Pointing the Way, a two-year old crop of this same photo. You can see part of this photo's focal point in the upper right of "The Launching":
