Me + Challenge Win + Bison…seriously!

February 21st, 2012

Feb Photo-a-Day = Favorite Photo of yourself. That’s me on the left and my cousin back in about 1959. Weren’t we cute!

Remember my sunflower from the Plus PSP challenge this week? They liked it!

There’s a local ranch that has this small herd of bison. They are strange looking animals and fortunately, for me and my husband, these are friendly.

This is one I posted with Instagram the other day too. I love the vintage effects!

Feb Photo-a-Day + Signs of Spring

February 20th, 2012

The theme for today is handwriting. I wrote sunset and drew the crude looking sun on a phone painting app I have installed for the little kids I keep to play on. Yes, I do let a 2 and 3-year-old play on my iPhone. Dumb on my part, but gosh are those kids smart! You would think the way they work that phone they can read!

Oh! But back to this theme pic. I took a screen shot of that scribbling and then overlayed it on a phone sunset pic along with a texture that is bundled with a couple of other apps.

By the way, I am an app hoarding queen!

Spring is bursting at the seams in my part of the world and I have the photographic evidence. No iPhone pics here, all Nikon baby along with a little Lightroom and Paint Shop Pro Photo X3!

Something I Hate to Do + Photo Trip!

February Photo-a-Day

♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

A few photos from a photo trip last Sunday with my DSLR.

Signs of Spring

Fenced

Storm Cellar

I think I would have felt safer above ground as opposed to seeking shelter here. Perhaps it was much different looking back in the day, but this day? No way would I crawl in there!

Lake Gibbons

Distant Deer

And yet another deer too far from the reach of my lenses. I hate that, but love the fact I have the opportunity to see them.

My Favorite Drink and a Mystery Lady

February 18th, 2012

Feb Photo-a-Day’s theme is drink. DDP is my absolute favorite!

Here’s my mystery lady inspired from the same challenge idea as my post a few days ago. This image just took on a life of its own.

I forgot to mention my very good friend was the challenger for this week. She’s an amazing artist!

And yes, we did like the same free blog theme. We have great taste!

Time is the Theme of the Day

TGIF! And that’s all I can find to say tonight!
