Blog #2 Framed

While walking down our road yesterday with our dog Badger I noticed this cool dried and cracked mud in one of the puddles. This morning after photographing birds I went back and photographed it. I returned home and photographed the door of an old curio cabinet. Later sitting down at the computer I began layering up the image I had in mind.I started with the cracked mud.Then added the flower and the frame. I had intended on using a red flower I photographed yesterday but changed my mind when I realized that an Iris image that I photographed last month would fit the door fame much better. I finished it al off with a textured overlay. I'm quite happy with the final image. God's love and blessings to all, chris

Toy Truck for Fun

This weekend I went to a friend's daughter's graduation party. I took my camera along in case anything inspired me.Mostly I photographed my kid's friends playing frisbee and having fun. My favorite picture of the day though was of an old metal toy truck sitting there waiting for someone to come play with it. It was old and beat up and for some reason it looked really lonely. This evening I applied some texture to it and added a frame around the outside. I really like how it came out. Go d's light and love to all, chris
