BIRTHING THE MOON

"Birthing the Moon" (12-30-17 003v4) was morphed several weeks ago from the original that was taken at the end of this past year. And, yes, it's of that same tree I have posted pix of here before. Haven't been to that park it's in, in several days. Still having occasional knee trouble. But will probably make it there tomorrow and snap some more photos of its cool Standing People (an American Indian name for trees). After all, I don't have enough pix of trees yet, do I? :-)

TACKING INTO THE WIND

"Tacking Into the Wind" (9-27-17 002v4) was just fussed out of an earlier version of a several months-old original pic. Not much else to add, except that I always check out these birds of paradise blooms. They often get themselves into intriguing positions, and as they open they can take odd shapes. This somewhat color pencil like effect is the result of several different filters and functions in Photoshop. Can't even recall them all as the version I worked from I'd already fudged with months ago. :-)

EYE CANDIES

"Eye Candies" (10-26-17 10047v6) was just fudged with further from a very old pic. Don't even know what folder the original is in anymore; I found the copy I messed with today, on my blog, and copied it into a present folder :-D. It's visual balance is a little off but I couldn't figure a way around that stone in the upper right "weighing more" visually than the other elements in the photo. And I sure don't want to cut it out. I tried adjusting/changing colors and intensities, etc. But have wound up being content with a bowl of candies, among which one stands out. Non-caloric candies at which I'm happy to look.

TILTING AT WINDMILLS, AGAIN

"Tilting at Windmills, Again" (1-18-18 002v3a) was just morphed from a fairly recent pic. What else to say as it's of one of those trees I often post pix of here. Not sure I've yet caught what it is I'm after in this photo, but this version (one of many, of many different shots) comes close.

SUNSET GOLD

"Sunset Gold" (11-2-17 038v2b) was just morphed from a version I made of a pic I took back at the beginning of November. It wasn't a sunset shot, but that little tree was all goldish/orangey and put me in mind of some sunset colors. So I worked to get that feeling for the entire pic. BTW, this was taken at the beach overlook, which I haven't been able to walk to for way too long. I miss it and hope to make it there soon since I've started long walks again.
