Photo Art Friday

For Photo Art Friday this week Bonnie asked us to link a photo that has an element of a path or road.

I used a photo of the sea (that I forgot to put my polarising filter on!) at St.Catherines point on the Isle of Wight and a picture of a path through the woods, I was trying some landscape shots and thinking about leading lines.

I adjusted the levels and curves a bit on both pictures, added Bonnie’s Splash of Gold texture to the woodland picture. I changed the blend mode, then placed the sea picture, added Splash of Gold turned 90 deg changed the blend mode and came up with this.


There are some beautiful pieces of digital art here today.

For Photo Art Friday this week Bonnie asked us to link a photo that is, in some way autobiographical.
Or, a photo that simply pleases.

This does both.

As you can see it is a still life of a ‘bowl of fruit’
I made the the tiny bowl and the fruit out of icing. It was part of the decoration on a cake I made for my mother for her birthday in 1997. Her anniversary is in March and I found the box that contains some of the pieces I made only a few months ago. I had completely forgotten I had them.

So, it pleases me because it reminds me of my mother and it is autobiographical because I made the subject of my photo, lost it! found it! then took the photo of it and then played around in photoshop with it…and linked it here

February Collage

I put some of my february photo’s into a collage again to link with Rebecca at A Month in Photo’s and then had a play with the filters in Photoshop to link up with Bonnie at Photo Art Friday.


I think this looks a bit like fabric patchwork.
