This photo of rain on the driveway just seemed to sum up my feelings.

I duplicated and reversed the left side of the photo with a feathered edge and merged the two parts. I used a mask to delete some of the right side and used a hard light blend mode. I duplicated the photo and did a find all edge filter to create a black and white sketch, increased the contrast and used a multiply blend. Duplicated that layer.
