Last Project...for now

This is my last project for my class--a collage. I have ideas for several of these, so this is the first of many.

I'll also be trying out some free tutorials until I take on another online class, so there will be more photos to come. I hope you've enjoyed seeing them as much as I have enjoyed creating them.

The Latest...

My latest projects....

The first is a story board--I really like the look of the story board, but I'm not sure how to get it printed (gotta figure that one out--any suggestions, Curt?).



These next pictures are selecting color--so cool! It makes the color look amazing. Mackenzie's eyes are really that blue! In the photo fun post I "painted" a little more blue into her eyes, but not here.



You've seen this one before, but here's a new spin on it.

Infinite Possibilities

Here are more pictures I edited with the techniques I learned from the last two photoshop lessons. I am now using several techniques together and just loving all the possibilities with digital photography--they're endless...

Friends

Today's photoshop lesson was about adding text to your picture. I already had this figured out, but just had to practice some more.





Renee--this one's especially for you.

"Old" Photo

My project for today was to put an old-time photo texture over the picture. I used two different kinds and can't decide which one I like best. Have I mentioned how much I'm enjoying this new hobby. Now I need to actually get some pictures printed on paper and a digital frame for the rest. (Hey, my birthday is in October if anyone needs a gift idea--lol.)

Let me know what you think.

Here's my picture from today's photoshop lesson. I would have done more, but it took too much time working out some bugs with downloading the texture files from the website.

This is Matthias pulling a little wagon when we went berry picking at VoVo's last month.

Frustration

I took this picture on July 4th. Miles was frustrated because he had to wait his turn to play with the water gun. Here's the before and after from the techniques I'm learning in my photoshop class.



Here's another picture I did using the technique I learned from lesson 4. All I did was resize and scruff the edges. This is so much fun, if I only had the time to play with more pictures...

Photo Fun

Here are a few pictures I "painted" for my photoshop lesson 3. This is alot of fun. If it weren't for the time, I may have done a few more.

Summer



This is my photoshop project #2. Isn't he a cutie? This was taken this past Saturday, celebrating July 4th at the park with the Floyd's. More to come...

Sassy



I'm taking a photoshop class online--this is my first project. The photo was from May, but still thought I'd show it off. I have ALOT to learn, but looking forward to delving into this new hobby.
