Canoe Journey


Finally! I finished the canoe journey map! I don't usually get time at work to make a map beautiful, but I did on this one and I really like how it turned out. Finding the Canadian data took a while but I did find a place to download the DEMs for free. It just took a loooong time to get them.

The ever long quest for watercolor

I would really like to figure out how to do this water color technique digitally:


Here's another example:


This one was done by hand - in other words someone actually used watercolor paints to fill it in, but there has to be a way to do this in photoshop or something....

I see it everywhere in magazines - especially Backpacker or Outside. Anyone got it figured out?
