I took the original into Photoshop and then placed the over-processed Kelpie picture on a layer above and then reduced the opacity to 30%.



Yeah, that's it! I frequently use a similar technique in Photoshop CS2. Duplicate layer, switch from 'normal' to one of several filters (screen, color dodge, linear dodge, multiply, soft light, hard light, luminosity, overlay etc.), reduce opacity to taste (often down to 5-25% or so, and merge layers. The shadow/highlight tool (advanced menu) can produce a similar effect.

But it's all good... Celebrate the digital revolution!
