What does the Ballpoint Drawing effect change?

Ballpoint Drawing translates photographic edges, colors, and values into the marks and surface behavior of the named art medium, while retaining the source composition. The strength control determines how much of that treatment replaces the unedited appearance.

Which photos work best with Ballpoint Drawing?
