Boa feathes get textures with PSE 11

Remember the boa feathers in my New Year's "selfie"? Today I decided to take a picture of the boa feathers in color and then B & W at same angle. I had to do indoors with window lighting because it was too windy outside. Not all the feathers are in the same plane in the color image so not all will look tack sharp. I used High Key and increased color and saturation. Then I used the B & W image to add some texture with line drawing and low key effect.. If I changed the hue and saturation I could get even more effects but will save that for another day. Post Processing was with PSE 11. I could have used other  in camera app programs and gotten different effects with some more muted tints and design elements. Those would be great for a background layer if I ever start doing digital art collages, etc.
