This challenge is similar to an earlier one on Glowing Edges where there is no specific tutorial to follow as long as you incorporate a specific filter, in this case Find Edges, in your creation. Find Edges is a much more commonly used filter and in fact I ran across this tutorial that starts out: The Find Edges is one of my favorite Photoshop filters for playing with an image. I tend to agree so play away ... A couple of suggestions - having applied Find Edges in a layer you can leave it coloured or desaturate it - desaturation is commonly used for sketch effects. The blend mode makes a big difference and adjusting levels is often needed to add contrast. Here are examples with the cherries:  And here's a sketch effect where I used Find Edges, Desaturated, used Overlay blend mode and then duplicated that layer a couple more times  Looking forward to seeing what you come up with finding edges. PS - Inverting a Find Edges layer can do interesting things too. Tony |

Well this turned out to be fun. I can't tell you how many times I've taken a variation of this picture and have NEVER been able to edit it to my liking.  To get the results below I started using a recipe in DXO CE 2 called Black/Gold. I layered this over the original edit at 74% Then Find Edges/Darken Blend Mode 79% Stamped Visible Filter Gallery > Poster Edges.....settings, 0,0,6 Since we were talking about using clipping masks in another thread today, I decided to add a clipping mask to the finished image. I like the way it sets off the final image.  |

The tones are beautiful and appear to soften the image and your final presentation of the image with the clipping mask is really lovely. |

A well-chosen image, Sepiana. I especially like the purple/orange tones.
Would love to see the original.

Never mind, Sepiana. I found it. It was the brushed rose texture that gave it that beautiful tone. I followed your "recipe" and came close but I like your results better.  |
