Photo Art Friday theme this week is doors. Since I love doors, I have a stash in my archives. I pulled
this one, cropped it and played with it. It is the main entrance to the Xavier del Bac Mission in Tubac,
AZ
Following are the steps
- Duplicate the image
- Blend in soft light
- Levels adjustment for brightness
- Pdpa soft reflections texture blended in hue
- Simplify layer, clone out some spots
- Radial noise gradient
- Lens flare filter
- Layer mask to remove gradient from exterior of building

Hi Marilyn thank you for your comment, that ray of light has given an extra dimension to the image, well done.
Very nice picture, makes you wondering what is the other side of the door... the past or future?
A magical image as a result of some magical, digital manipulations. Thank you for sharing your work with Photo Art Friday, Marilyn.
