Pictures of the day

 

Used picasa to increase the shadows. These were just some mums outside of my apartment that I've been meaning to do this with.

Forgot

to post the original ring on the mum photo.  I like the editted so much better.  Here they are again for a comparison.

Just ordinary to me

Sunday was full of flowers

like this one I saw on my way home.  I liked the variance in the colors. . .For some reason I'm getting into mums lately.  They really are kinda beautiful!. . . Who knew I liked them? I didn't.

And candles. . . I tried to take some candle pictures tonight and this was my favorite.  I don't know if I like it too much though. In the background is a picture from my grandparents 50th anniversary party about 9 years ago.

Saturday Flowers. . .

This is the original. . . Then I rotated it, and added some shadow, and a soft focus and got this:

And then this one is a bit closer up. . .

And here is another original. . .

and then I rotated it, clicked the "i'm feeling luck" button on Picasa, and used a bw, focus. . . and got this

 

And another one of this bud. . .

which is unedited. .. probably one of my favorite photos I've ever taken on the new camera.
