New to DPS, new to my Nikon D3000, new to Photoshop. Critiques welcome!

Welcome to DPS.
It doesn't look like a photograph. How did you do it?

[Michael_2010]

Not sure what the average age around DPS is, but this "illustration" made me think of the 5th Dimension's Age Of Aquarius. lol

It looks like if it was made on PAINT instead of photshop... but, in a good way. I mean, it dosen't look like a photgraphy at all, it looks like a drawing made on MSPAIN. Great work!

Thanks, everyone!
Michael - Too funny --- I just saw Marilyn McCoo and Billy Davis Jr perform this past week - they sang "Age of Aquarius!" Still sounds great!
This was a quick Photoshop process - I just used the filter called "poster edges."
The subject is my daughter, dressed up for a LasVegas/flapper party. The original shot was her whole face.
I like to crop my pictures to create interesting, new pictures.

I like the tight crop on the face. Makes it more visually interesting and causes a little curiosity.

It does have a nostalgic feel about it reminiscent to the very brief psychedelic age. lol
