Memories of Warmer Weather

As a method for coping with the current sub-zero temperature and piles of snow, I decided to work on pictures I had taken during the summer, in order to remind myself that this frozen hell does not last forever. I continued my experiments with texturized landscapes, as well as a requisite flower. I am particularly fond of the coloring on the first lake image, a product of serendipity.

Textured

Lately I’ve been playing around with adding textures to my pictures. While I like the depth and color the textures add, I wonder if this is another one of my artistic phases that I will look back on and wonder why I thought it looked good. At least I can always go back to my original RAW file and redo it if I want; yay for Photoshop. Here are a few of my latest works. The self-portrait was taken at the Sherburne National Wildlife refuge (my adventure there is a story for another post) and the other two were taken of a farm in St. Bonaficious.

Field Trip

This weekend, I took a trip to one of my favorite fields. What makes a field a favorite? Well, this one has a giant log pile that makes for a comfy, sunny reading spot, and is even better as a vantage point when deer come out to feed. While Bambi and friends were oddly absent that night (I’ve never before gone there without seeing at least one deer; usually there are upwards of twenty. Perhaps they too were up North for the holiday weekend), I found lots of bugs! When I leaned in to get a picture of a beetle, I looked up from my camera to find the giant spider inches from my face – good thing they’re docile. I did bring more ticks home with me though; boo urns on that account.
