Cow Collage by olivetreeann

Cow Collage

I didn't have much hope for finding a cow for today's July word. And I was just about ready to swap it out for one of the bonus words or not do it all together when I remembered I had a cow magnet on the refrigerator!! Well, it's not the most inspired collage, but it was fun making it.
This is very cool. Love the creativity and processing.

@edie Thank you Edie! I didn't want to just post a shot of the magnet- so the self challenge began- make it look cool and different.

I shot some cows today but I didn't realize it was the word. I'll have to have another look at what I got.

@eniaral Thank you Laraine!
@taffy Thanks Taffy!
@anazad511 Thank you Ana! Oh my, what did I use to make this? I think I was in both Ribbet (top version shot in color, but used the extra black and white effect, cloned out the word "Cabot" from the souvenir magnet, and then boosted the white in the "adjustable threshold" effect) and iPiccy (bottom version- uploaded Ribbet version, inverted and then added "Cybervision" effect, but didn't like it so I threw the iPiccy version of neon over that and used a white outline instead of a colored one. Lastly went back to basic edits and flipped the picture, saved and uploaded version #2 to iPiccy and then put both shots into the collage, using a grey border.) Added the usual border frame using black for the outer border and red for the inner border. And I think that's what I did, but not certain about ever step on the black one.
@yaorenliu Thank you Yao. I live in an area that does have some rural spots, but so far I've not seen a dairy farm. We do have a business nearby that has a fake cow out in front of it, but I didn't have time to get there on this day. So I was glad to remember the refrigerator magnet!

@mrssmith203 Thank you Carla!

Did you know, Ann, that with black and white cattle, there is not one who has the same markings in the whole world?
July 14th, 2013  
Cool shot

@maggiemae Thanks Maggie- no, I did not- but now I do! Wow- the things you learn on 365!

@digitalrn Thanks Rick! I really thought it was quite boring at first. But the reactions have been so positive, I guess it's not that bad after all!
July 14th, 2013  
@olivetreeann I'm not back yet....hopefully sometime in August....but I log in 365 once in awhile to view photos. Nice to see you on FB!
July 17th, 2013  
@cimes1 Thanks Carole! You are missed! I'm trying to go on FB more often but I'm really on 365 the most. Looking forward to seeing you here again in August.

Bev
Very cool, Ann! :) Imaginative and cool processing! Well done :)
July 18th, 2013  
@summerfield Thank you Vikki! I have seen some of your selfies- you are certainly NOT a cow!
@prttblues Thanks Bev! This is a Vermont magnet from Cabot! I just took off the name (partly because I just wanted the cow and partly because I don't know if it's copy-righted or not!).
