Brave feather... by marlboromaam

Brave feather...

Working with vintage effects... For those of you who missed it, I am part Cherokee on my mother's side. A wonderful Bill Miller instrumental that my pic may accompany. It's amazing how animals also respond to music. Enjoy - my horse loved this! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i6EIEUfbt30

Also, it rained sheets here a little earlier! Yee haw! Sure happy to see the rain!
Love the vintage effect and the textures!

Very interesting. Do you do that in photoshop???

Music is so very powerful. I have read a great deal about the power of music with autistic children and autistic adults. Incredible.

@yonnie Yes and no. It's a Photoshop plugin but Perfect PhotoSuite's Perfect Effects that I used. Thank you! Music is one thing I could NOT live without. I could live without TV, but NOT music. =)

Gorgeous soft textures and color! Beautiful processing ... almost has a silvery look to it. Yes, I knew about your Mom ... my husband has some Indian ancestry as well. I love my music too ... wouldn't give up my ipod and little Bose headsets for anything. :)

@karenann Such wonderful comments! I love every word you wrote, Karen! Thank you! What nation of indian ancestry? I'm curious. =) I don't have an iPod or anything like it. LOL! But, I do have an old stereo system with a cassette player, turntable and CD player. Ha ha!

Great detail and textures. I love the shimmer in the feather too! I have Cherokee in me, but not enough to count :)

Great textures Maggie!! It kind of reminds me of the fine swirls of our fingerprints. I'm glad to hear that you finally got some rain!

@deburahiru Thank you so much, Deb! Grateful for your comments and visit! How much 1/8th, 1/16th??? They cut you out of the rolls at 1/8th. My mother and her brother could have their names added to the rolls. I cannot but, it sure did explain some strange things about me when I found out. My grandmother's father was a halfbreed and at the time in our history, that was NOT something you wanted to admit to anyone that did NOT know. Back then, it was a "shame" to be part indian. I will have to tell that story one day. =)

@skipt07 Really appreciate your kind remarks, Skip! Thank you so very much!
