EVEN STONE DREAMS OF RELEASE

"Even Stone Dreams of Release" (9-5-13 009v3c) was just morphed from (yup) a very old version of an even older pic. What else to say? There's a lot about it I really like, and yet, and yet, I spent a lot of time trying to get at what bothers me. Well, as I commented here yesterday, at least as long as I was editing (and making other versions, too, as usual) I wasn't being miserable. BTW, if you'd like, click here to see another of the versions I made this morning.

EACH THING DREAMS OF BEING SOMETHING ELSE

"Each Thing Dreams of Being Something Else" (1-2-18 007vm) ... sigh, this is the gazillionth version I've made just this morning from the same original (very new) pic. And I'm still not happy with it. Given my mood today that's not surprising. But at least for the time I was editing away I didn't think a whole lot about what's got me down. (Other than my 74th birthday going by yesterday ... on top of other unwelcome stuff ...)

A HAIRY SITUATION

"A Hairy Situation" (11-26-17 002v5b) was morphed several days ago from a fairly recent pic. As often, a pic of a tree in Anisqoyo Park. BTW, click on the pic if you'd like to see the details (they show better in a larger version).

AS THE ROOTS, SO THE TREE

"As the Roots, So the Tree" (1-2-18 007v2) was just cropped and fussed at a wee bit yesterday; from a brand new pic. If you'd like to see another shot/version, click here. I've also got several surreal colored versions. Yep, it's one of those pix that's grabbed me. In fact, this particular vine/wall always catches my eye -- and often my camera -- when I pass by. But this was the first time I included that tree showing above it in shots. Surprised I haven't done this before! I've been walking by this vine/wall for many years, in all different seasons.

SKY DIVING

"Sky Diving" (12-30-17 008v2) is from a very new pic, cropped a couple days ago, and just now finalized with a wee bit of color contrast work and further cropping. I often sit beneath the palm this frond is on and finally took a pic from that sitting position when I noted that contrail in the sky behind it. (You may eventually see several pix taken that day that the contrail plays a part in.)

THE COMING STORM

"The Coming Storm" (12-30-17 009v10) was just morphed a couple days ago from a brand new pic. I blush to admit that it's only one of eleven (yeah, 11) versions of this crop of the original pic. I just can't stick to one version when a pic keeps unfolding in my imagination. Mostly by prompting the question "What if...?" and I'm off and trying a bunch of other filters, etc. on it. It was ultimately the "solarize" filter (on top of the effects of many other filters, etc.) that gave that multi-colored sky. But I didn't leave it at that, as I then fussed with the colors that resulted.

BLACK LIGHTNING

"Black Lightning" (12-30-17 006v5) was morphed yesterday out of a very new pic. It's of those trees in Anisqoyo Park in I.V. that I so enjoy looking at and taking pix of. (Click here to see another pic of a tree in that park taken recently; a very different sort of "intepretation," if you will.) Clearly I did a massive amount of fudging to "Black Lightning" in Photoshop. That contrail just kept calling to me from somewhere else and I followed. Any guess how many versions I have at this point? Well, right now only three, but if history is any proof there will be many more. And there are already many more of a different, wider shot of the same sky. Oy, lest I forget: HAPPY NEW YEAR! (Can you believe it's 2018? This soon to be 74 year old can barely get her mind around it.)
