Previously was using free online photo sketch and also tried using photoshop sketch plugin/action but results not desirable.
Now try it myself using 2 layers, 3 adjustment layers, 2 smart filters, 1 poster effect filter and 2 blending modes to pencil sketch from a 5yrs ago photo:

I am testing out some lighting and haven't taken my pic in a year or more. Almost have it, need to iron out the wrinkles literally. Haven't used more than one flash and no stands in forever so it is good to reacquaint myself.

If I put my readers on, Pebberberry, we could almost be twins. We have the same barber, anyway.

6.1 miles today… this was during the tail end of the hardest 4 miles.

Not a pretty sight… lol by -vanya_42nd-

Not a technically good shot nor a good shot of me. I was pushing my hair back to keep the sweat out of my eyes. I also used the wide angle lens on my cellphone.

I’m very lucky. I worked with a team of talented people on this. I’m just one of the tips of the iceberg. I’m standing on the shoulders of giants. They too are being acknowledged. I am humbled by this group effort. No prima donnas in the whole group.
