Playing with images and different effects, textures and layers.
I took this picture of a rusty old car on my recent thrifting excursion.
The photo effects make this old junker almost look romantic.
Just think of all the good times, exciting journeys and songs sung in this relic!
This wide eyed baby doll had been made into a lamp!
There is so much to learn about photography...
...and it sure is fun to play!
Having a good time...
even though my camera is a simple point and shoot and I lack any know-how with Photoshop...I can still experiment!
I hope that you had fun this weekend and that the week ahead is productive!
:)
Love the last one with the flower. I too, just got a new camera and am a little overwhelmed by how much you can do now!!
ReplyDeleteYour right! the junker sure does look romantic. that's pretty cool how enhanced the photo.
ReplyDeleteThese are fantastic Laura!
ReplyDeleteIsn't playing fun :)

Isn't texturing a blast. I often think when I'm resizing my pics that I'll leave them as is but I can't seem to help myself, it's addictive. You've made those antiques look even better and the flower now pops off the page.
ReplyDeleteMissed you today!!!
Carole
This post reminds me of some photos of old cars I captured a while back, I can't wait to go back and add a few textures - will be amazing.
ReplyDeleteOh how cool.......I love the photo of the car!!
ReplyDeleteBlessings.....

Your photography is wonderful and looks professional to me:) Love the old car! My Brother has one like that and he is restoring it!
ReplyDeleteHave a blessed evening!
HUGS!
The picture of the clunker belongs in a magazine. Had a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteThe car photo is wonderful. It looks like memories in my head...kinda hazy and sunkissed.

You're pictures are always perfect and beautiful to look at. I don't think you need to learn anything.
ReplyDeleteYour photos are just lovely!
ReplyDeleteIt really is so much fun to tinker and play with your images, isn't it?
Have a wonderful week!
Hugs,

Fabulous Laura
ReplyDeleteThese images look wonderful.. and love the old junker.. I agree you should frame it..
Just like Carole I can't resist alteration.. although lately I haven't been altering them.. bought a new camera and loving the outcome.. I'm sure it won't be long and I'll be back to editing everything in my path.. haha
Have a lovely week.. xxx Julie
I have been experimenting with PS as well. It can be very addicting!
ReplyDelete~*Wow they look wonderful~ What photoshop site do you use?? my camera is old and my pics never look quite right~ Rachel :)~*~*
ReplyDeleteLove the car, Laura, and the baby is quite spooky! I know I saw what you were doing to learn thing but I have forgotten. A class? Piknik?
ReplyDeleteThinking of you,
Suz
Dear Laura,
ReplyDeleteYou're a wonderful photographer. I think that it's not particularly the technical side that makes a good photographer but the srtistic side, and you definitely have that.
I love the one of the rusty car. They can make for a very depressing picture but you have given it that wonderful romantic quality.
I am a bit of a purist when it comes to photography, but that's probably because I haven't got a clue when it comes to altering them !! XXXX
Wonderful images - such fun photos - alterned or natural.
ReplyDeleteLove your pictures .Photoshop is fantastic
ReplyDeleteYour pictures are so great, dear Laura.........the first one i love most......it looks soooo romantic!!!!! I wish i could learn that one day, its so beautiful!!! Have a wonderful week,
ReplyDeleteHugs Jade
Love that old rusty car. Until I get my girl out of college I vow not to buy an expensive camera. A lot can be done with a point and shoot just like you have shown us. hugs♥olive
ReplyDeletePicnik is so much fun! I love these photos :)
ReplyDeleteI love your photos. I am trying to learn what my Canon PowershotSX120 will do. I want those images that are fuzzy in the background and clear on the object of desire. Have tried and tried but cannot figure it out from reading the manual. Must find someone who can help me. Love following your blog.
