Sunset on 2011

This was a fantastic photo for the end of another 365. This photo is looking out over Lake Tarpon in John Chestnut Sr. Park in Pinellas County. Photo was shot in 6x7 and post processed in Squara. For all of my blog followers and FB friends, I have enjoyed sharing my photos with you and I wish you all the very best in 2012.

Holiday Flash!

I went to an open house last night and found this fabulous find. An elf taking pictures with a camera that flashes. Doesn't get much better than that! I was so excited by this that I had to find one on Ebay and he is on his way to me. This is a Hallmark Keepsake ornament that is about 10 years old. Photo was taken with iPhone without flash and then ran through Pixlromatic, Dynamic Light, and Scratchcam. Wishing everyone a very happy 2012!

Antique Shakers

This is a collage of antique salt and pepper shakers that were made in Japan. It is a boy caroler with song sheet and a girl caroler with lighted candle. The 3 photos that make up this collage were created with a variety of apps. The 6x6 iPhone app, with an Olloclip, took the photos, which were then processed in Decim8, Scratchcam, Pictureshow. The frames were created in Dyptic Frames HD and Picframe.

Painted Sunset

The weather is cold in FL right now and this results in more spectacular sunsets. This one was shot from the Belleair Causeway Boat Ramp looking toward the Gulf of Mexico. Photo was shot with 6x6. Then it was run through Noise Master, Dynamic Light and finally, Filterstorm.

Tropical Christmas

A tropical Christmas can be very nice. This photo is a composition of a Hibiscus flower in my neighborhood that was juxtaposed, with the Juxtaposer app, onto another photo of an antique ornament hanging from a tree at an antique shop. The antique ornaments were shot with Hipstamatic. Scratchcam was applied to the hibiscus photo. Frame Magic was used to compile the photos into a collage.

Lunar Lightstorm

I was taking pictures of outdoor holiday lights and decided to put my iPhone into my shirt pocket, when I heard the shutter go off. I thought, "I'll have to delete that one." I was surprised to find that I had captured this strange light pattern. Photo was taken in Hipstamatic with the Matty ALN lens and Pistil film. Photo was was post processed in FX Photostudio to give it an out of this world look.

Red and Green

Nekkid (unprocessed) iPhone photo of holiday lights in the palm trees at Largo Central Park. This signified Christmas in FL as it was near 80 degrees today. Had to be close to record temps for this time of year. Tourists loved it; locals not so much. Happy Holidays everyone!
