Today after mass we went to get Jon a haircut before school starts Wednesday and then stopped at a local farm for some veggies and ice cream cones.
Afterwards I walked a bit around the farm and found this Thistle and Bumblebee.. All I had with me was my little PS Canon SD800IS but loved how the shot came out 🙂
It is also posted over at PBase – click the photo for the link…
It has been a while since I’ve posted… life has been… interesting… we came home from vacation to find problems with our water well. Three weeks later and a new well pump, things seem to be working again finally.
Next step was to actually do our ‘Summer Project’ of refinishing the deck. So we pressure washed it, scrapped it, cleaned it up, painted it and it rained… and rained… so we had to sand that off and repainted today. Hopefully it will dry and be done now!
I’m several battles behind so yesterday I wanted to try to figure out a way to bring Battles 126-130 altogether… and they had so much in common! NOT….. 126 (ruins) 127 (surfboard beach shot) 128 (pin cushion) were all quite easily added… Had a bit more problems with 129 – the metal piece… so I inverted, converted to polar coordinates and then use the distort twirl to it and it became wall art… This week’s image (130 – the old paper) was set to multiply over the images in the tv screen itself.
All other elements were designed from scratch in ps… obviously the most time was spent on the etch-a-sketch type TV…
Here are the originals.
And here is the composite.
