Creative Interpretations - Ponce Inlet Lighthouse

Okay folks,
Everyone has been begging for images to work and thanks to Miss Swampy the dolt known as me was shown that even I can put images here for you. So here is the deal please. I have absolutely tons and tons of stock images that I am more than willing to share with all of you and you can have at it and enjoy. You can even use them in your retouch portfolios if you would like as long as I am given proper credit. I only have one request for respect of my intellectual property. A lot of these images are co-owned by myself and the Associated Press as well as other entities. I have control of all copyright privileges but I just ask that you treat them with respect so as not to cause a problem between my clients and me. If I place a photo with a recognizable person, place or thing, be assured that I have signed releases on all of them so no worries there. I look forward to seeing your interpretations of my work and sharing them with you. Enjoy and everyone send a big karma hug to Swampy, guider of dolts.

Re: Creative Interpretations - Ponce Inlet Lightho

Wonderful, Sweetlight!!!! Having peeked at your photogallery, you have some amazing shots and they will be fun to paint!

Here's mine.... I enlarged the light beams first because I thought they might get lost when painting. Other than that... my Watercolor Tute, noise and texture added and final result overly sharpened.

Re: Creative Interpretations - Ponce Inlet Lightho

I've been there a couple times. Beautiful restoration job they have done. But I've always known it as Misquito Inlet. LOL.. showing my age.

Re: Creative Interpretations - Ponce Inlet Lightho

I know it as Mosquito Inlet as well but figured nobody would know where it was by that name. And trust me, as a kid born and raised here every year we hiked our little buts up those damn stairs on a field trip. Good lord one more time and I might have jumped.

Re: Creative Interpretations - Ponce Inlet Lightho

Was going to put a slew of Mosquitoes around the Light House but it was too dark and you couldn't see then anyway.. Are they still prominent there?

If that was Arkansas you were speaking about, there would not only be mosquitoes but a ton of bats as well. Good thing you didn't add the mosquitoes.

Re: Creative Interpretations - Ponce Inlet Lightho

Swampy, Naw I am in Kansas.. Although I have visited your state a few times when in the military.
I was born an Okie raised up in California, Oregon, Washington.. My folks followed the fruit when jobs were scarce.. If you ever saw "Grapes of Wrath" that about how my early youth was..

I followed my wife to Kansas after Retirement.. Been here toooo freaking long.. before retirement the longest I was ever anywhere was maybe a year..
