Weekly Photo Challenge, “Night Visions”
“Night Visions” suggested by Kubli420
This is an older photo I took and it was taken at a local shopping center. I was taking views of contrails all day long as the sky was filled with them. The exotic buildings to the right gave a mixed look of from where the photo might have been taken and added with the lights in the distance and the oncoming night sky it came out in an interesting fashion. For a much nicer view, click on it to bring it up full size.Just a few things I have been playing with in my graphics group. The photos used are my own except for a couple my daughter took and I used. I seem to be running behinder with each passing day but I still hope my world will slow it’s pace so I can play catch up. We are going out of town and I have a new 540 meg picture card. I am getting quite a few megs of storage in these little guys. Some photos you hate to delete out of a card.
Anyway, some pics.
Stamps are a fun project. I use Paint Shop Pro and tutorials for projects to guide me to the finished product. It’s fun.
The picture above and 2 below were taken by me at a clowning seminar. I have two sisters who clown. One does clown ministry and the other clowns anywhere and everywhere trying to help their income. She is very funny and blogs once in a while here in Xanga Bunhilda. Clowning seminars are a great place for photos.
This Young woman really looked super in an outfit she designed and made herself. The baby was dressed to match. The following picture gives you a full view of her clown character. I took a lot of photos for her without charge and added a lot of my graphic expertise. I sent them to her and didn’t even get a thank you. People never fail to amaze me. Her clown name is of course, LadyBug.
This photo of me, my husband John took. It is an exhausted and dead to the world portrait or he wouldn’t have gotten it. I am pretty much camera shy not being photogenic but I really liked this one. It has an artistic quality I have seen in some of the old Dutch masters I think. What I see that does it is the dark colors and the light and shadow. I’m not an art expert but I liked the photo and think he was very studious of a good shot on the sly.
This photo is a graphic compilation of photos I took. The project was to take and use 5 or 6 photos turning them into a single picture. The barn I used as the base photo and then, the hay bales, all the people, the sky and the dandelions and other floral growth you see came out of other photos. I had a good time doing this and was proud of the way it turned out. You should be able to click to enlarge it for a better view.
That’s it. I have a lot of irons in the fire. I will be taking photos on a trip we are taking. A local trip sort of, the greatest distance from home maybe 500 miles. There is a lot going on in that radius and I expect I’ll find some shots worth taking. Posting more often will happen with some new photographic material and closure, eventually, of other things.Regards to all,

Your photo is perfect for this weeks topic. Thanks for playing!
I absolutely love the photo you submitted to the week’s topic, it’s gorgeous.
RYC: you tickled my curiosity — why do they have a special place for you? Because London has a HUGE special place in my heart, too. I love it dearly.
RYC: Thanks for the compliment on my photo entry! Your night photo is really great…it looks like a painting.
I love contrails. Your photo is just beautiful!
Hi Becca!
Thank you so much for visiting me and for your nice words about my “night visions”…
I see you have so much more experience than I!
Lovely pictures and great job with your compositions on the computer!
About the question you asked below, I use photobucket.com yet it seems that now xanga premium offers 1 Gb of storage space. You can upload 100 Mb / month! So don’t delete your photos!
Have a nice weekend!
Isabel
What a beautiful blue sky in your entry. And the building adds a very nice touch. That picture of me, on the other hand, ugh!
“send them a copy and didn’t even get a thank you”… why does THAT sound so familiar!? i used to do that and now i wait for them to email me… if you don’t, then they lost a freebie foto!
great night pix!
