• ArtRage Challenge “Water”

   

  ArtRage Challenge

  The topic for the month of July 2007 is:

  Water

   

  

  Using one of my daughters photos, my grand daughter and her dad on the beach. I did the graphic changes you see below.

  

  I had fun adding the ship in the background and worked at adding some ripples where they are playing with the Jelly fish.
  

  

  I don’t live near the ocean so most of my water photos are taken of local rivers and lakes.  I do have a stream that borders our home that becomes subject matter off and on.  This is a Little Miami River shot taken in April 2007.  Looking down into the water from a ledge created by the tree trunk and it’s roots which are in the foreground I got the reflection from the branches of the tree above. 

  

  This photo is my Grand daughter at her swim meat in Spain.  I added it to the photo above to get what you see next.

  

  It doesn’t look the safest place to swim and it needs a lot of wave in it to break up the reflection.  I’ll work on that.

  

  This photo was taken the same day as the tree / water ledge shot.  It is one of my favorite shots as the sky was so blue and reflected into the river below, its same colours.  It was a gorgeous day to be out and enjoying the scenes.

  Most of my graphic manipulations are done with Paint Shop Pro.  I love the program and playing with it.

  Best to everyone and I have enjoyed making my first entry for the ArtRage challenge.
