More photo editing exercises

I am totally loving working with Photoshop Elements and will have to break down and buy the real thing before my free trial runs out. This pic was an exercise from lesson 5 about using textures. I used a photo I took a few years ago when my sister and I went out to the North Fork of Long Island to visit some wineries. I think it was in October, so the colors weren’t too vibrant anyway, but I took down the saturation a bit to make it look just a little bleaker. There are actually 3 different textures used here. Then I added a mask for the edges, the frame (which is really a brush), and some text, using some of the previous lessons. I love it!
