The boys and I spent the morning collecting bits of nature around our back yard.
I was actually surprised to see find so many different things growing after the ups and downs of our crazy weather lately.
I took pictures of everything spread out and then put everything in one of my favorite wood bowls for out little table by our front door.
When I went to edit the pics, I decided to play with the images a bit.
I use both Picasa 3 and PicMonkey to edit my pics. I inverted the colors, used cross process, yestercolor and cinamascope to get all these different looks.
I really like the inverted colors of these last three images with the blue, purples and greens. I thought they might inspire some different colors in my art.
Lovely pics! Nature provides some of the best raw materials!
Loving your photos. I’m always amazed by nature. Here in Portland we’ve got lots of moss growing all over ~ love all the colors and shapes it comes in. I live across from a very old cemetery and the wall around it has the most fabulous moss in so many forms!
I love the moss in Oregon. When I visit my sister I am always so amazed that it grows everywhere.
They are glowing. So pretty. We are being hit with 10-15 inches of snow right tonight so it is nice to see growth.
love this
