It has been hovering around freezing here and lots of grey sky so pleased to capture some splashes of gold when looking up at the sunset and down at my daffodil pot
Yes I am eager for the end of winter – are there signs of spring where you are (or autumn in the Southern hemisphere)?
I picked up a pack of these lovely bright felt flowers in the craft shop this morning for £1
I’ve hung them by thread in my living room and office/craft room (you can see the edge of my chair)
I smile each time I wander past and see them
What are you doing to bring some spring cheer into your home?
For PhotoArt Friday this week I intended to follow Bonnie’s prompt of ‘connect’ but then I came across this sight on my walk
and had to follow the ideas that immediately sparked on ways to use the reflection of the abandoned bike.
For once the pixel magic ideas that I had while continuing my walk actually worked once I was back at my computer. I’d taken several photos from different angles and combined them then added Bonnie’s starburst texture and I adore the results. I saved three using different blending modes – which do you like the best?
colour burn blending mode
luminous blending mode
difference blending mode
looking forward to seeing the connections others have made this week.
It’s been feeling like spring around here – I think the longer hours of daylight and the sun being higher in the sky are what is making the difference, rather than any real increase in temperature
I enjoyed a walk along the sand when the tide was out and captured my up and down, with a nice connection of the seagull footprints in the sand.
The blue sky is deceptive, I still had on a coat, hat and gloves.
