Old Barn

I created this from an old barn picture I had that I took right here in NC. I used the HDR method of course. Then I used some burning, dodging, and blending for this effect. I enhanced the red and yellow. I also used a grey layer for the clouds. Here is my result. I love North Carolina.

The Night of the Living Dead

Last night I was into dark mode. I used my pictures to create zombies. They look morbid and scary but it shows my creativity. I downloaded different brushes for photoshop to create these effect. I used Adobe CS4 to create these creepy Zombie images. Then I used skull pics off the Internet for the skull effect in some of these pictures. This was my result. It is a little out there for some people but I like how they came out. These can also be good for Halloween pictures. This is my own work on pictures that I took myself.






You can also find them on my "I Dead People Set", here on Flickr!

Adobe Creative Suite 4

Joe just installed Adobe Creative Suite 4 on my computer. I can't wait to try it out;-)It has a 3D effect. I will upload it to my download list for you guys to download and try. Most my friends already know where that is. I will let you know what I think of it.

MEET ZEUS

This is our English Mastiff Zeus. Hes also an important part of our family. He weighs about 260 now. But that is good for his breed. He loves puppies and children. He is so devoted an loyal. We love this guy lots.

HDR Images

Here are more HDR pictures here at Slocum Pier in North Carolina. Slocum Pier is located in Cherry Point in the city of Havelock. It is a beautiful place to go if you are in that area. It is located on a Marine base. I used an HDR action on them to get these effects.

Catherine's Birthday

We had Catherine's Birthday back in August. Her birthday is August 22. It was her first Birthday. We had the party looking great. We only had a couple of close friends there. Her cake was lovely and she of course was beautiful. Well, I got the phone call from my dad about my mom being in the hospital and he told me I needed to come home because it did not look good. So I was not paying much attention. She started without us. We tuned around and she was covered in the cake we had sitting on the table. Her face and hands looked like nothing but icing! I grabbed the camera! Who could resist getting pictures of that. It was her cake anyways and her day so it was not such a big deal. Imagine the horror if had been someone else's Birthday party! Ouch! Our theme was Princess everything because of course she is our princess! I managed to get pictures of the cake before it was ruined;-)

Another Catherine Photo

Catherine's Photo Shoot

She makes a wonderful subject for pictures! I couldn't resist! The grass in my front yard seemed like a good place for pictures! She played PattyCake and was having a wonderful time;-)
