This is my effort using Redochre's tutorial for a seascape using Furblur plugin.

Finally got around to doing this.

Welcome to my Gallery. It's hard to believe that I've been playing with PDN for 14 years now. Where did the time go? I have learned so much from many of the very talented people on here like @HELEN, @barbieq25, @oma, @welshblue, @Goonfella, @A Fleeting Glimpse and @yellowman who have been such an inspiration.

Dear xod! I hope and wish you to find new job quickly. Much success!

Thank you all for your feedback. @ DrewDale - nice result. @ Seerose - I'm sorry that you failed. I feel somewhat guilty about your failure. Unfortunately I just lost my job and now I have no more time. I need to find another job. See you soon...
