Beautiful Dogwoods!

Dogwoods are blooming all over Tallahassee right now! On Tuesday, Mark and I stopped to photograph a flowering dogwood tree in the Callen neighborhood on our way home from work. Here are 3 images using the magic wand tool. Tomorrow I may photograph the blooming azaleas too.

Having Fun with the Magic Wand

I've been working on making new images for my upcoming exhibit at LightnUp Gallery in Havana. The magic wand tool in Photoshop makes for interesting selections. I've also had to learn about resampling and cropping for correct dimensions since I'm having my images printed professionally by a photo lab (www.whcc.com). So far, I've set up an account with them and I've also ordered basic matts from www.redimat.com.

Winter Sunrise/Exhibit

Thanks to Swamp Buddha Diana Orrick, I've been invited to exhibit as a guest artist at her coop gallery (http://www.lightnupartcoop.com/index.html) for April/May. The reception will be on April 12. I'll probably exhibit 4-6 framed prints, unframed prints and greeting cards.

Perhaps this new piece, Winter Sunrise, will be available. Come out and see the show!

Neopolitan Oaks

Today I walked in the woods and photographed some trees. Here's another Photoshop practice: using the Gradient tool.
