The Willow Tree, posterized and photoshopped

I already put this picture on Facebook, but I wanted to share it here.

It is SO fun to play with Photoshop.

The closest tree here is the Willow Tree, which I named this blog for.

I added the orbs to make the photo look more interesting.

I love the sunsets around here for their beautiful color.

When I get another camera, I will be able to do even more.

Of course, when I learn what the different settings do on the camera I have now, it may change my mind about needing another one for awhile.

There are two local camera clubs.

I may join one this year or next.

Today I spruced up the windows downtown at the Pots Place. It was fun!

Helen brought in some yarn holder pots, which people have been asking for, and the other potters have been hard at work too, making dog bone holders, snack pots, and big bowls.

Incidentally, The Pots Place in downtown Bowling Green, Kentucky has a website and a Facebook page. Come visit!

Here is hoping things are going well for you. Leave a comment!

Fun photos from a car window...

Window pictures

Sometimes I get my window pictures to work. These are from the highway on the way back from Nashville.

There are many old farmhouses, neat trees leaves still sticking up from them, plus evergreen trees and sometimes birds. Sometimes I think it would be fun to go inside the tree areas on the farms to see what is inside.

Usually I get a couple of photos to turn out,  and I'm amazed at how neat they can look, even slightly blurred.

It's fun to use Photoshop to make the photos more interesting too.

It would be fun to make a collage out of them.

Railroad crossing. Turkeys sometimes to left.

Do you like photography too? Write a comment below and let me know about that!

Kentucky tree photos, telephone lights from Nashville and snow photos

I took these photos about a month ago while coming back from Tennessee. On I-65, there are lots of beautiful trees on the side of the road, plus some neat farms and fields.

I had a lot of fun playing with these photos in Photoshop too.

 

These next photos are taken in Nashville, downtown, after it got dark. I started trying to get a real view of the area... but wound up getting some neat slow exposures from street lights and car lights. To me, they look like telephones.

I hope you like them!
