OTHER THINGS I'VE BEEN DOING

Not everything I do totally distorts the original, sometimes I only play with color, or in these samples with solarize and negative filters. You can get some very surprising results just going to "negative"!

This one is what I call a "raw" image, the negative view. Other filters and tweaks would be done to enhance the color, then the lithograph effect would be added to (actually) soften the view somewhat and at the same time emphasizing certain areas of the image.
