This week we were invited to share a piece of photo art featuring lines, angles and/or graphic elements. This is the MUDAM building aka Musee d’Art Moderne (Museum of Modern Art) in Luxembourg and the building itself fits the title perfectly. I have added a French Kiss texture appropriately called “geometry” which I blended in [...]
Sarah Rosso said “Hands. Hands can be instrumental in a photo – they emphasis, they hide, they reveal. They can be the star of the show, or just a prop to help the main attraction stand out better. In this photo, this hand was what kept me between life and death as I walked down [...]
As there was no official weekly photo challenge this week, Ailsa at Where’s my backpack? has posted a challenge and would love you all to join in. See here:: http://wheresmybackpack.wordpress.com/2012/05/12/reflections/ I have always loved taking photographs of reflections. It was hard to choose one single one so I’ve uploaded several.

This week in Kim Klassen’s Beyond Layers course we were on the lookout for colour. We were encouraged to go out and take photos of different colours for each day of the week. However, since life rarely runs smoothly, we could raid our archives if necessary. All the following photos were taken during the last [...]
On day 11 Kim gave us 2 versions of her new texture “rejoice”, a grey one and a beige one. On this photo of the star on top on top of our Christmas tree this year, I have used the grey one here at multiply blend mode, first having applied a gaussian blur
On day 10 Kim gave us Providence which I have used here with colour burn blending mode at 100% Please visit Kim’s cafe to see what other people have done with all these glorious Christmas-gift textures
On day 9 Kim gave us Lola, a texture incorporating music. I decided therefore to search for a photo with a musical theme and came across this one.
On day 8 Kim gave us Storm. For this one I used vivid light blending mode at 53% opacity.
On day 7 Kim gave us 3 more versions of Magic. For this one I have used wonderful magic scripted. The script says “it’s a wonderful life” and I think that’s exactly what these chickens have as they grub around in the dirt in a garden adjoining that belonging to our friends. As Kim suggested [...]
On day 6 Kim gave us 2 versions of Magic, one scratched and one not. I have used both textures here on two slightly different photos. They were not black and white to start off with (well not quite) but have certainly ended up like that and I quite like the effect. As Kim suggested [...]
