    The directions were easy to follow in PSE. I did an additional blend mode of Soft Light on the mosiac over a background paper and got a very woodsy effect.

    This is my favorite technique from the challenge. I thought it was cool and something I could potentially do again (if I remember the steps. Here is my finished layout:

    My only question... do i need to include the original photo in my MOC layouts thread for some reason?? We don't usually, but just thought I'd check!

    Here's my page and photo... fun technique that I may have never tried before without this push. Thanks!

    Here's the original image (also used in the layout)

    Journaling: We flew to Denver and then flew to St. Louis on a flight that was following the Eclipse. It was an amazing view. We landed early so we saw the end of the eclipse just before we went home.
