The inevitable canal and a composition thats all about converging lines, but with a dog.
Overlaid with Angela's old paper texture

Using the trial version of XP&G desiger to try the new features I used the Orton effect filter and the Fake HDR to end up with the attached.
Much better than the white spot and a black rectangle that I had originally.
It could still do with a bit of lightening which I'll try later.
Roll on PRO version.
