Sunflowers by olivetreeann

Sunflowers

I didn't really have a second photo to upload tonight because I've spent most of my time today putting together a slide show of my pictures for my photography club next week. As most of you know I constantly second guess myself when I do these things! So I decided to mess around with one of my other sunflower shots tonight for my second album. I like the old painting effect I pulled off. Turns out this will be used for another photo related project I've been involved in- but that announcement will have to wait. Stay tuned!

correction: old *master's* painting. this is beautifully processed. intriguing about the announcement. the camera club seems going great, eh.

@summerfield Thank you Vikki! This will be my first time really showing my photos to them. So far I'm remembered as the "one with the baby picture"- that show stopping shot of Micah's head in Betsy and Christopher's hands. So we'll see what they think after next Tuesday!

@homeschoolmom Thank you Lisa! I don't know if I'd have room for it with all the other paintings and photos I already have up there!

Nice shot, Ann! And excellent processing too. It does look like a painting. That's cool about your exhibit. I think you will do a great job and you will know what photos to select. Your mind and heart will tell you if you don't think about it. It's second nature. This is so lovely. Well done :)

I do like this - doesn't suit a lot of pictures but it does here with the sunflowers! Good luck with the camera club - hope things don't have to be too perfect!

@nicolecampbell Thank you Nicole! As always I was experimenting and trying things out and discovered a new way of playing around with the vintage effect in Ribbet. I really should keep track of how I do these things- especially when I get an outcome like this that I really like!
