Hazy Days of Summer

Hot summer days are my favorite! The Mohawk is always beautiful to me in the summer with dense brush, shoreline rocks and overhanging trees. There is a filter used here. If you enlarge the image you will see its effects.

A new "Twist" on an old image

Slopes, turns, dead ends, support, reflective, smooth...life's lessons

Girl Hiding In The Shadows

This image may require some explanation. While "hiking" (actually a nature walk), I came across this old doll laying in the woods. Creepy? Yes! However, there is an abandoned house not far from where the doll was found. Still Creepy? Yes! Anyway, the "pure" photo was too realistic and disturbing to me (b/c I'm such a deep artist! ha). By using several filters and colors I wanted to retain some of the mood of the scene yet create a more artistic feel with the lines, swirls and colors chosen.

Without the explanation would you have recognized what it is that you are looking at? Pretend it wasn't my photo b/c you all know me (I'm not going to use a live model). I know my photography lately isn't what pleases everyone but I've been purposely pushing the limits a bit to create conversation.

August! ugh

It is August and my summer vacation is half over! One thing that has been fun is shopping for my new house. I found this scene outside of a store in Little Falls. BeFunky.com is a free site if you care to check it out. The site isn't anything extraordinary; however, it has some fun effects.

Man's Best Friend- Stephen King Style

I recently watched Stephen King's Pet Cemetery. If you have not seen this film, it is a fun one to rent. The premise is that pets who have been buried do not always remain buried. Some COME BACK! Be careful what you wish for!

Nature Trail

Humid, tropical weather seems to saturate the colors beautifully.
