Great contest!

Such a painterly, impressionistic feel of Isola Dei Pescatori .The bright sky with it's mix of blue, aqua and gray strokes and tones, the warm, vibrant colors of the buildings, the boats and the reflections from the water are wonderful. Outstanding shot and post-production!

The bright, contrasting colors remind me of Vincent Van Goth's bold and vibrant tones. A simple, everyday image that most people would ignore or never see. Who photographs their breakfast eggs? A photographer who can see beyond the humdrum and turn the image into a work of art!

What incredible lighting! I can feel the warmth of the sunlight filtering through the trees. The brightest areas make me want to squint my eyes. There are better examples of Impressionism in the contest but I would not change anything. I love this photograph!

Such a wondrous, painterly feel. Love the tones and brush strokes in the background. Composition is perfect! There are better examples of Impressionism in the contest but I would not change anything about this image. I love this photograph! Nicely crafted!

Very much the painterly, impressionistic feel. I can sense the modest wave motion and the overall cold tones make me think I would need a warm jacket if I were there. Outstanding image and post production with your Topaz software filters.

Honestly, I can feel the wind rustling the wheat field the trees. The warm tones contrast well with the cold colors. Movement and color were so important to the Impressionist painters and you captured them extremely well! Van Gogh would be proud!

Such a painterly, impressionistic feel. I love the mixed tones in the background that complement the flowers so well. The shot could have been mundane but you have transformed it into a work of art. Great post processing! Very nicely crafted!

This image has totally captured the impressionistic feel from the brush strokes to the modest, motion blur and reflections in the water. It is best viewed from a meter or more away, just like the Impressionist paintings we have all grown to love. Outstanding!

Such a painterly, impressionistic feel of Venice. The bright sky with it's mix of blue, aqua and gray tones, the warm, strong colors of the buildings, the many boats and the glare from the water are enchanting. Outstanding image and post-production

Brief

See more contest details

In this contest I would like to see your photographs transformed into an image in an Impressionistic style using editing software. The Impressionist artists of the 19th century did not paint a realistic picture, but rather an emotional impression of what the person or landscape looked like through their perception. They wanted to capture the movement and life of what they experienced. Major contributors to Impressionism include Claude Monet, Camille Pissarro, Vincent van Gogh, Auguste Renoir and Edgar Degas. Thanks to outstanding software, as photographers you can emulate the style of the Impressionists through digital enhancement of your work. The subject of your image can be anything you choose.
