Cooling Icecream on a sunny day

What is better than ice cream on a beautiful sunny day. I thought this photo looked good from the camera so I just added this negative film frame from Photoradar to it in Photoshop ;-)...



Flowers in my daughters boots

I played a bit with this photo in Picnik, added some Lomo-ish effect. Then I opened it Photoshop, played a bit with blending modes and added this photoframe from Photoradar.com
On their page you can download 50 free photo frames and borders for Photoshop

On a sunny day

I decided to try out some new techniques in Picnik with this photo. I started by adding a bit of orton-ish effect and then I added the 1960´s effect, I must say that I am quite happy with the vintage or retro look of the photo :)...

Heart with a quote

I bought this heart some time ago, I thought it would be ideal to photograph ;-)... This is a photo I took with my macro lens, I added a text to it in Photoshop, then I opened it in Picnik to add some lomo-ish effect and finally I added a Polaroid frame to it in Photoshop.

Lomo flower photo

I really love to play with my photos and give them a bit of a retro or vintage look. Besides polaroids me favorite style at the moment is lomo. Of course it would be nice to have a original vintage, lomo, polaroid or toy camera but as I don´t have any of those right now I play with my photos digitally in stead. I added lomo-ish effect in the free online program Picnik.

On a beautiful rainy day


I haven´t been photographing much on rainy days. As I love flower photography and after a few rainy days waiting for the sun to photograph I thought I should give it a try to take some photos on a rainy day....and I was so surprised how the photos came out beautifully... the colors where so bright and magical and the bees where having a good time ;-)... I thought this photo looked good as it came from the camera so I didn´t play around with it this time.

Macro flower photography

I must admit that my latest passion is macro photography, especially flower macro photography...it so nice to see all the small beautiful details of the flowers through the macro lens. The Latin name of this flower is Aster puniceus. It was such a beautiful shot so I didn´t want to play to much around with it... I just added a frame and a little bit of texture to it in Photoshop.

My toes, self-portrait

I have been a fan of Photoshop for quite some years now. It was really Photoshop that got mew interested in photography... and I have been playing around for a few years now with photo taking and trying all kinds of different play tools with them in Photoshop. Recently I discovered the free online program Picnik. To this photo I added lomo-ish effect in Picnik then I added a frame to it in Photoshop and I must say I am quite happy with the result myself :).
