Thank you Tran, Polygons is a very nice effect
Here, my tries on those two images.

[Issabella]

Thank you Dinasset for sharing your results and saying how to do it.

Two good candidates for picture to line art.

Used distance transform (under Contours in G'MIC) to create the brick mask for the result (trick I picked up during my marble binge days). Gives a better controured mosaic result, imo. Still a work in progress, of course.

[Issabella]

David, your art line outcomes are really very beautiful. I love them. Could I know how you got the second one? Thanks
Lyle, awesome that outcome, your treatment to get those little tiles is great. Thanks.

I took those pictures from a ver high tower "Atalaya" in Seville.
But there was crystal to protect people.

Issabella,

I ran Picture To Line Art on the original image.
Applied a Curve to the visible layer to darken the lines - everything happens at the right hand side.

I made the desaturated layer non-visible and then created a New from Visible layer so that I could reduce it's saturation.

Intensified the colouring and texture of the stone work/pavers by a using GMIC/emboss overlay; kept the original sky.

Now we know where the photographs of the window and the flying buttresses came from!

A conventional treatment.

Again: the 3585 posted as original does not look "original"

[Issabella]

Thank you Dinasset, I suppose I lost the original one on that photo. sorry.

David, Thank you so much for your contributions.

I love all your transformations y outcomes from simple images.

I have tried to make the church stand out. When all else fails, resort to an old-fashioned contrast mask although it has produced artifacts.

A different approach.

scaled down, outcome was too big
