There is no medicine like hope, no incentive so great, and no tonic so powerful as expectation of something tomorrow.~Orison Swett Marden
Hello Friday
Listening to Bombay Bicyle Club – “Flaws”
Clouds scudding
Pink sky,
Crispy leaves
Branches swaying,
Joggers, cyclists,
It’s another workday
How we choose to spend the day is our choice.
But be mindful of your thoughts and deeds.
Celebrate the rising of the sun, the smiles of people you meet.
They need the lift that a smile and a word of thanks brings.
Texture Tuesday – just popping in
Hello everyone, I couldn’t resist TT, we have had such lovely weather and the trees in the park are dropping their leaves. So I did a little tinkering in LR (of course) and came up with this….
How is Autumn in your part of the world ?
#apphappy – love PicTapGo
Popping in today to link up with Barb for her app happy Wednesday. I used this yesterday in my Texture Tuesday post, but I so love the effect I created in PicTapGo it reminds me of a 60’s type album sleeve by someone like the ‘Lovin Spoonful’
Hot town, summer in the city
Back of my neck getting dirty and gritty
Been down, isn’t it a pity?
Doesn’t seem to be a shadow in the city
I added some text I had created in Photoshop then imported into Letter Glow….
Are you joining in ?
TEXTURE TUESDAY~ THOUGHTS
These dank cold mornings can be so uninspiring to the photographer so sometimes more processing is needed to get just the right effect.
This Silver Birch in our garden is a sad sight, it leans over as it once was overpowered by a huge conifer from our neighbour’s garden. We were hoping that it would recover but now I’m not so sure. I love the silhouette effect you can get so it has endless possibilities in LR and Photoshop.
After playing in LR I decided it had a Japanese feel to it. I love the pink hazy effect I got I also used a texture from Kim’s Waterfront collection..
Oh and designing logos has become addictive !
A WEEKEND WALK THROUGH THE PARK
Well I didn’t have an outing planned for this week so I decided to walk from our house in Trull into Taunton. Usually this takes about 30 minutes but It took me an hour ! It was one go those lovely crisp morning with the most beautiful light.
I so love the reflections in the window of this old building
Moving on I caught lots of little closeups, my favourite type of photographs
Did you see the bug ? I didn’t ……
The walk took me along the main road then off on to a side road. So many wonderful photo opportunities.
Through the churchyard and into the park I just caught the light. I was so lucky.
It is true that when you look at something familiar through new eyes you see beauty all around you.
