Art Show

These are the photos I am considering for the Art Show.
I tend to go for the sepia tone, because it has a warmer feeling than the B & Ws.
I might just add sepia tones to all the entries, but not sure.  I am looking to enter 3.
I may even consider the ones posted below in another entry.

Baseball

Baseball season is approaching & I did this collage of my son from last year's school
 team.  This was an idea I wanted to do but put it off.  I have seen the same thing on
 Maria's (GOTOMARIA)Journal & loved the layout.  Someone did it for her.  So I
 took the basic layout that was used & added my photos.  I have done collages in the
 past for birthday parties, this is my first sport collage.



This I did last year & was posted on my old journal that I deleted(b/c of ads)

Rose.......

Been working on roses again.  I think I might just use the B & W's for the art show.
 Will have to show the ones I plan to enter.  The theme of my entries will be Roses, I
 have up to 3 that I can enter.  So maybe I could enter color too, not sure.  Once I post
 the B & W's I really would like some honest opinions on which ones I am considering.

My Fresh Rose for Valentine's Day


There is a fountain of youth: It is your mind, your talents, the creativity you
 bring in your life and the lives of people you love”


 ~Sophia Loren


The Rose was given to me by my older son.  He also had roses sent to my daughter  out on LI, who was having a rough time with Valentine's day.  For someone who was suppose to be depressed about Vanetine's day....., she got flowers from a guy friend & her own brother.....She did ok!
Thank God for friends & brothers!

Winter at Philipsburg Manor

I just added the defused filter, I like the snowy effect.

Welcome to my Private Journal

Welcome to my Private Journal
I have decided to keep this private because there are some people stealing photos &
 ideas, which, I don't mind people using my photos, but would like to know in
 advance & maybe a link back to my Journal(or in this case, my other journal)
I have been working on photos which I hope to enter in shows & would love honest
 feedback.  I invited only those who have left comments on my UK journal on the past 10 entries.



I think this might be my favorite. Each rose I either adjusted the saturation &/or used
the defused filter.  I also made some adustments with the levels & curves.
