Baby photo

Playing again with layers & blending modes.
Photo of my mother in the mid 30's.

Boat

I've worked on this on & off since the summer.  Same subject different seasons.  I'd like your opinion on this image, I tend to favor #1, but tried the sepia effect on the same image, just thought the color was better.

Home for the Holidays

We decorated the outside of our home early this year, but always leave the inside for
the last minute, mainly because we have a fresh tree & we try to leave it up till little
 Christmas which is Jan. 6th.  That is our tradition.  I would like to get a artificial tree,
 but that doesn't go well with all members of our family.  
I tried to get the natural lighting for Xmas, so I set up my tripod & tried different shutterspeeds. 
I hope all of you are where you want to be this Christmas....Peace~
Merry Christmas....again~

The Last Shot I'll post on FI Lighthouse

This is the last one I will bore you with.  It's one of my favorite shots of that day
when I visited the lighthouse.  I love the wide angle shots & panoramic views.

Need your opinions

I am setting up a Hometown webpage on Portraits & am looking to see what heading would look good.  
(The last 2 are very similar, only one has a tiny border, in case you didn't notice.)
Please look closely, I need your honest opinion. If there is one thing about one that you like & would like to see it in another one, say it, I can redo anyone.  I see everyone likes #2, is it only because if the name?  Remember it's the heading only, my photos will be displayed right on the same page.  Noe other pages for now, just keeping it simple.  I will have to work off my boys' computer.  AOL's Easy Designer is not compatible with MACs.
Thanks for all who have commented, really appreciate it.

Also AOL is screwing up on the postings & comments, it may appear that your comments are not posting, but they are & sometimes twice. Report it to Jeff @ Magic Smoke.

Working in layers

I used layers & filters on the recent photo.

Autumn in NY taken in 2005 the original is on my Blogspot Journal

 thought I would try it.  I just added text to it.
