I have been messing around today making these brushes and thought i would post them incase someone else finds them useful
they where made in cs2 so not sure if they will work in older versions ( sorry)

Palms

This action is made from a tutorial by Corey Barker
seen here

It works on quite a few different images it just needs the odd bit of tinkering ( mainly colour etc )

All that i have done is made it into a action this is all Corey's workflow

I hope it is of some use to someone and that you enjoy the use of the action!

Due to no one playing ball and letting me practice on them (as wrote in last entry) i have had to resort to more flowers

So next challenge will have to be things that are in the house i.e. objects, that may take some thinking and planning though but it may keep me amused with winter coming

mind you i also want to get some sunsets/silhouettes if i could find a interesting place, I was hoping that i could of got some while on holiday but that was a let down...

The next couple of photo's,
I especially like the first one of these the second being a bit too dark but that was a experiment Pity the clematis wasnt in better shape, but it is getting late in the season for them.

Now i don't want to give out the wrong impression here, there where plenty that went into the bin mainly due to not getting the distance right and the wind blowing

It may be a long time till i next post some as i will be trying out on humans...

non "Auto " photo's



As i have said before in a previous blog i was going to try and not be a happy snapper so much, and try to get to better grips with my camera, well during then and now i have tried unsuccessfully, every now and then tried different things that i had read with very little results

Then i asked someone for any tips they had on photographing red flowers and they very kindly answered...
