Hi:
Here is a sample of the Woodcut filter as applied to a photograph.
1> The original photo
2> This is a color only reduction. You can adjust the number of colors, as well as the "roundness" of the color areas.
3> This is a Black only reduction. You can control the thickness, as well as other attributes of the reduction areas.
4> This is the 2 reductions impositioned. You can also output both black and color in one step, but you get more control to do the separately. I added my own interpretive clouds.
5> This is a 100% closeup to show the real detail. I used Dye Concentration to add the appearance of paper grain.
The Woodcut filter has a lot of expressive range in it. You can also experiment on original artwork as a starting point, as well.
Enjoy!
