EYE ON SUMMER

Eye on Summer is a new photo in which I experimented further with photoshop functions. The texture that makes this look a bit like a painting is called "burlap." I think I also used an "accent edges" sort of function as well. Not sure how I feel about this picture, but I don't dislike it enough not to post it. (How's that for a mouthful of negations?) I can say, however, that it's a nice change for me visually from all the "abstracts" I've been coming up with recently.

WAKING WITHIN THE DREAM


Waking Within the Dream is three years old, just edited this morning. I've posted a couple other versions of this same pic before. It's clearly one of those that hooks me at some unconscious level so that I keep being drawn back to it. I'll have a stable of pix on which my imagination can ride by the time I'm through with it.

MOTHERBOARD MELTDOWN


Motherboard Meltdown is a very new photo just edited this afternoon. What can I say? Sorta reflects my own (not computer related) minor meltdown, but at least I had fun layering different photoshop filters.

PUMPKIN ... SQUASH

Pumpkin ... Squash is a three year old photo, just edited a few weeks ago. Not much to say about it except that I -- ooops! -- keep seeing a dropped pumpkin in it.

THE BIG BREAKER, & [untitled]

The Big Breaker, above, is yet another from my newest folder of pix, just edited this morning. It's original is another shot of the lavender roses we had blooming here recently. I'm always surprised to see lavender in a rose.

This untitled pic below is still not edited quite to my satisfaction (e.g., if I brighten it overall, the big bloom's color fades too much), but it does show the actual lovely pale lavender of these roses. I also enjoy how their tight buds are a deep pink/red and as they open they gradually lighten.

FOUR WAYS TO LOOK AT IT

Four Ways to Look At It was assembled from a photo I've posted here previously ("Super Moon Rising"). I may switch the places of the green and blue moon pix eventually. As is, the picture is weighted rather brightly toward the bottom. But for now, this will do.

Omigosh! I just now noticed on the red one, those bent up railings in the top upper right. They are not there in the original I pasted in the Paint program to make this assemblage. How did that happen? I don't know of a function in the Paint program that would distort/move lines. Though that doesn't mean one doesn't exist and that I might not have accidentally activated it during what is still for me a frustrating pasting process. Weird! In any case, I'll have to re-do and re-paste the red version when I switch the places of the green and blue ones.

WALKABOUT

Walkabout is from that same new folder of pix I've been posting from recently, just edited yesterday. I also wanted to call it "Ace of Lizards" for that dark lizard shape curving around a sort of center cup. But that's really a stretch as one would need to know that many traditional Aces in The Tarot have cups on them. So I've stuck with the vague resemblance this picture has to Australian Aboriginal art. That resemblance, by the way, tempted me to call it "Dreamtime Lizard." Ah well, that's what you get when a self-professed poet names photos. Nano-metaphors.
