here are some amazing examples of what you can do with it.
if you've not heard of it, check it out on google. I've only just got into it and haven't been able to spend as much time as I'd like to yet. but seriously, give it a few hours and you'll be making images that will really impress yourself.
Now that has caught my eye

I'll take a look at that


Thanks
