Good thing I take another look here. This morning only the first two pictures showed. I love the others as well, the original colourful picture AND the experimented one. What great boats!!! Bye, Marian
Thanks Marian - I got a bit carried away doing them. The boats are some of the Tall Ships, which we saw in Norway a couple of years ago. We went onboard one of them as we were invited for lunch. A we spent a lovely day exploring the ships.
I like both! -although I tend to like ( a lot!) black & white photos
Ahoy there!
ps. yes. my mom still have that photo among some others from past relatives. Here in Norway, from those old ones, I have with me only one of my grandma as a child. I cherish it and I see in it DNA working ;)
Thanks Demie - I like black and white too. Perhaps you could take copies of the photos next time you are in Greece just to be sure that they do not get mislaid and you have copies of them.
Very nice Rosemary. The first reminds me of the old pictures I have seen of sailing ships at the port of Melbourne in the 1800's. The original puts me in holiday mood. Thanks for sharing, Betty
Hi Rosemary, I like the first one especially. By eliminating some of the color and detail, the underlying sculptural quality of the underlying scene is emphasized.
You are right Jim - I suppose that is what an artist does with his eye when painting, making a print or linocut, they manage to pick out the main sculptural components.
Rosemary, I like the originals just as good as their edited versions. The great primary colors are wonderful. I have been out in the yard this morning photographing berries. Olive
Dear Olive - do not do too much and take care. Glad you enjoyed the photos, they are some from a couple of years ago that I have on the computer and have not used before.
The first one is excellent, my eyes were drawn immediately to the parallel lines of the picture. I should mention that the colour photos are brilliant to begin with :)
Dear Rosemary - I took the photos a couple of years ago when we were visiting my son in Norway. The Tall Ships came into the port where he lives, and we luckily were invited aboard one of them for lunch. They are a good subject with all of their angles and parallel lines to try out a few tricks on the computer.
The first one is very nice with the lines all laid out. However, I am attracted to the bell and would love to pull the clanger. It would be very loud, I am sure. The reflection of the masts of another ship in the lower right is nice also.
Dear Joe - the temptation was certainly there to pull the clanger, but we resisted. Glad you enjoyed seeing them, you must get Olive to give it a try when she is feeling better.
I have no words ! Your image can not describe! I tried as you told me but I did not created something ....You asked me what I bought .. This time my husband came with me and he is very cautious on the markets ... but he found something that I like and he took it for me .... but he asked me once again ... what would you do all that ... and I smiled .... Have a nice day ! Olympia
Dear Olympia - I did notice that your husband was with you, and thought he might be watching you very carefully!!! Try starting off in a simple way by putting a photo with some structure to it into edit a photo, then go to effects and try posterize and see what you get. Once you have done that you can experiment more. Hope this helps you.
Rosemary, Thank you for taking the time to tell me where the cards are to be found. The link unfortunately didn't get me there, however the artangels bit did!
Love your blog, what superb images you have produced. I'll have my beady eye on you from now on!
Dear LL - glad that you found the cards, they are really lovely, and I hope my son sends me another bird to join the one I have. Glad you enjoyed your visit, you are welcome to call again, anytime and caste your beady eye over me!!!
This method of technology with digital photo's is amazing Rosemary. You are marching ahead. Its all exciting. I am sure this will lead to other great images. I love the boats.. val
Hello Rosemary, I have been following you for a while but just realized I had not joined you as a member. I like your posts very much ! I also like to experiment with photos a lot. Yours have turned out beautifully in black and white. Best regards! Marie-Anne
Dear Marie-Anne - Experimenting with my photos is a new thing so I am pleased that you liked them. Thanks for following I will pop over to you and see your blog.
Hello Rosemary, photos of ropes and masts are fantastic! The others are also excellent! It was time that I had not seen her work, I was very overwhelmed with work. Congratulations and a big hug blog
Dear Antonio - so very good to hear from you again. I am pleased that you have plenty of work, that is excellent news, especially when so many people are without work. I am very happy that you liked the photos of the ropes - I have only just started experimenting with my photos thank you very much.
Nice! It added a "nostalgic" effect to the original photo :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Lea - pleased you liked the effect
DeleteMooi! Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteMarian
Dear Marian - I am having lots of fun here experimenting.

ReplyDeleteThe second is happy !
Olympia
Dear Olympia - it slightly resembles an old print.

That is interesting Betty, I like the fact that a contemporary photo can be given an old ambience, I am enjoying myself tinkering around.
DeleteLove them all but the first one is absolutely stunning! I admire you! WOW! Christa
ReplyDeleteIt is really good fun to do Christa - you are never sure what is going to emerge when playing around. Why don't you give it a try?

DeleteTerrific! I especially like the first one. Love the B&W treatment as well as the frame.
ReplyDeleteThanks Marie much appreciate your comments.

ReplyDeleteThanks Dani - just playing around a bit and having fun
DeleteThey are brilliant Rosemary....spectacular photos in their original state, and beautifully altered...just lovely. J.
ReplyDeleteDear Janice - I have only recently discovered the different things you can do with your photos - never to old to learn!!!
DeleteHi Rosemary,
ReplyDeleteIt's amazing what you can do with your photographs nowadays. I like the way yours turned out.
Happy new week!
Madelief x
Thanks Madelief - it is interesting to see what you can do with a photo, and how it can turn into something similar to a linocut or print.
DeleteVery artistic and well done.
ReplyDeleteGreetings,
Filip
Thanks Filip, and greetings to you too.

Deletewow!! I do not have the talent or imagination to do this..but i can certainly appreciate that you do!
ReplyDeleteSadly it really didn't take any talent but just a bit of fiddling around on the programme picmonkey, but thank you all the same.
