This image was taken several years somewhere in the hill country of Texas.  I added the same crumpled paper texture as in the previous post.  Several color and contrast adjustments and….voila! 

Another image for my online photomontage class with Carol Leigh.  This one uses a photo of crumpled paper as the background texture.  The bench was shot in front of St. Louis Cathedral some years ago.  I like how this one turned out.

I raced out to Prien Lake Park on Sunday evening when I realized the sunset was going to be something special.  Got several nice shots…this is one.    I have a beautiful pano but I hestiate to post here because the upload size just doesn’t do it justice. 

I wasn’t expecting the clouds to clear this evening but clear they did.  Nice treat to see a lovely sunset tonight.  This is four images stitched together to create a pano view. 

This was shot  at the Mission Conception on my last visit to San Antonio in March of this year.     I removed two metal benches from the walkway and used a Nik Filter to bring out the detail in the stonework.   Certainly a favorite location for photography.

I’m taking an online course from Carol Leigh working with adding textures to photos.  Carol calls this Photomontage.  Details can be found on her blog at:  http://carolleigh.blogspot.com/      This image had minimal interest until the texture added.  I like the effect.

Shot local fireworks display on Sunday evening.  This is a composite of several bursts overlayed to make one image.    Happy Birthday to the USA!
