Not a parasite, but a symbiotic relationship between an algae and a fungus - isn't nature amazing?<br />

And they even have tattoos made with such quotes. So here is a quote from Winnie, since I've always loved him. Or should I say "her"? As we know that the real Winnie, the one that inspired A.A. Milne to write the story, was in fact a "she".<br />

This was made in Photoshop - used a filter on one of my photos, some brushes, two textures for background, a polaroid frame, some adjustments and text. If you want to know the recipe, just ask!<br />

I want everything I see!<br />
The last interesting thing I saw was OOB, that is out of bounds photos made in Photoshop. And of course I had to give this a try, too.<br />
So here it is, my first... well, actually second try on this PS effect:<br />
[my first was a real success, too. but it was a kind of family photo, and as you might have noticed, I don't make a habit of posting faces/portraits/people.] <br />

I love this little fellow! Took this picture last year. Some two years ago we had many little leaf frogs in our garden. Then, I don't know what happened and the following year I only saw 2 or 3... So sad... I miss them.<br />

We went for a hike last week and... well... I found a cow!<br />
It was not a living one, just the... you know... bones.<br />
Here are two pictures of it. I used the vintage frames from <a href="http://www.thecoffeeshopblog.com/2011/07/coffeeshop-frames-12-vintage-frame-and.html" target="_blank">The CoffeeShop Blog</a>, go over there and you will find tons of tutorials, free stuff like frames, PS actions, storyboards and lot more.<br />

Ha-ha! Do you know what these are??? The teeth! I like their shape, all those lines and curves and circles.<br />
<br />
I took home some teeth and the two horns! I don't have a picture of the horns yet, they are out in the garden, on two poles. I would like to do something with them, don't really know what, maybe try carving or something.<br />
<br />
Have a nice week!<br />
<br />
See ya!<br />

I spent the last day of the last year out in the nature. We went for a hike and I just want to share some "postcards", snapshots I took.<br />
The lake was frozen and frost was everywhere on the trees, leaves, berries. It was just fairy!<br />

Well, I have a guess or two but let's not talk about this now.<br />
I'd better share my pencil holder which I made from an empty milk carton and one of my paintings!<br />
OMG!!! Did you hear this? - one of my PAINTINGS! The truth is that lately I've been trying my hand at journaling - for me to say ART journal would be way too much.<br />
I had a journal page which was a total mess but as I couldn't just throw it out, and because I discovered a most beautiful blog LIFE IN COLOR [<a href="http://insightsandbellylaughs.com/?p=5842" target="_blank">here </a>is the link, I recommend you jump over and take a look!] which taught me "<i><b>Embrace your mistakes…they can be beautiful if looked at another way!</b></i>" I simply painted over that page.<br />
Once again, I am not a painter, not even good at it, but... nevertheless, I scanned that page and then cut it in 4 and this is what I came up with:<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Well, I think that this looks somewhat better than the page itself and I am glad I didn't have the heart to tear it to pieces and... embraced my mistake.<br />
You should try, too. They say that if we are afraid of making mistakes, we'll never do anything.<br />
So get up and do something! Anything. Just DO something.<br />

They play a lot, and sleep a lot, and eat. In the beginning they were afraid, but last time we were there they just came in and enjoyed the company! I fed them, of course, and after a while we became so very close friends that I ended up with both of them taking a nap in my lap.<br />
<br />
These are the pics from the time I could hardly put a finger on either of them:<br />

<span style="font-size: small;">Here are my beauties:</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">They are made from my handmade beads and beautiful oxidized copper.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; font-size: small;">The beads are older, at first I didn't like them too much. But that was because I didn't find a proper match for them. Now I think they look nice in combination with the blue oxidized copper and the small beads.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: small;">Well... this is my first try at fold forming.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">First take a look at the end product:</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-OXMIQ8D9eL0/UA-xflqtgrI/AAAAAAAACQs/KWZHJJ4AAlM/s1600/DSCF1428.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="441" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-OXMIQ8D9eL0/UA-xflqtgrI/AAAAAAAACQs/KWZHJJ4AAlM/s640/DSCF1428.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;">This is not the most amazing fold forming ever... but, taking into consideration this is my first try, and that I don't have any special tools, and that I started from this as raw material...</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-VpSC4WUnkks/UA-x6Ur0CnI/AAAAAAAACQ0/fLrDsH03eV4/s1600/DSCF1441.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="275" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-VpSC4WUnkks/UA-x6Ur0CnI/AAAAAAAACQ0/fLrDsH03eV4/s400/DSCF1441.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">I don't think this is bad at all!</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Do you happen to know that the raw material is?</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Well.... I don't have copper sheets and don't know where to get them from. So I have to use what I have at hand. And that is a piece from the computer cooler!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-08770C1iKXE/UA-ylozmRsI/AAAAAAAACQ8/6Dt-Je0j2mQ/s1600/DSCF1440.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="276" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-08770C1iKXE/UA-ylozmRsI/AAAAAAAACQ8/6Dt-Je0j2mQ/s400/DSCF1440.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Don't worry, it was not from my computer, I mean not from the one that is in use!!! </span></div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">The bad thing is that I am very limited in what shapes I can make, due to the shape of the copper sheets...</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">But for the moment this is all that I've got, and I have to work with it or not work at all.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">And one other thing - my intention was to make some leaves. But as you see... anything but leaves!</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">After the first folding and unfolding, when it was obvious I was not making leaves, I decided to fold again and this is what I got:</span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;">Needless to say, I like them a lot. Right now they are my favorites.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span>
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;">I took some copper wire, hammered it, drilled the holes and then attached the ear wires. This time I didn't forget to fire the wire to give it a patina! They looked so naked and, I don't know how, had the idea to use these two textured beads I had made and painted earlier. A great idea and an excellent match!</span><br />

<span style="font-size: small;">The beads are not identical, and this is what I like about them the most.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;">Hope some of you like them, too!</span><br />

The finished Igor.</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-size: small;">I just love it!</span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;">It looks so real. I observed people's reaction when they firs saw it: everybody thought it was a real bird skull!</span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;">O how pleased I am! I started making this bead and was not satisfied with its outcome, and started all over again several times. Though, there are two mistakes. The first is a production mistake, or say a design one - the beak is a bit too long... And the second, I glued on the eye pin and forgot to give it a pa<span style="font-size: small;">tina before. I don't like that shiny wire too much, but the good thing is that in time it will fade.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;">It's all handmade, of course: the bead, eye pin, bail, and clasp. And it hangs on a genuine leather cord. Black!</span><br />

<span style="font-size: small;">Last week-end we were on a 4-day trip down to the Danube. It was beautiful and awful in the same time. The places we went to see were sometimes breathtaking, but the weather was miserable. It rained every single day, sometimes it poured. And guess what? Always when we were in the most interesting sections of our journey! [phu]</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Our first stop was Arad where we went to see the 1849 Monument. Here are just some snapshots:</span></div>

I don't have much of an imagination, but what I saw this morning was completely crazy!<br />

And now the freaking snail! God, somebody had lots of time and a very relaxed mind to think of painting a snail in blue!!!<br />
It was in our garden this morning. When I first spotted it, I couldn't imagine what that could be - a blue ball-like something in the grass. GOD!!! Poor guy...<br />

<br />
WOOOW, I feel so good when I make something new. And especially when I can keep up with new technologies!<br />
<br />
There are lots of QR code generator sites. I read a little bit about this on the net, and I decided I don't want only text, or only URL. So, I opened an account on SKANZ, where one can make a kind of "site" and choose what information the QR Code should contain, which is URL, text, contact, photo, all in one.<br />
And guess what?!?!? You don't even need an iPhone to scan/read a QR code! I have a Sony Xperia and it reads it! Of course, I had to download an app.<br />
GO AHEAD, make yourself a QR Code if you have something to share! It's easy peasy!!!<br />
<br />
OK, now take a look!<br />

I made the dough for my chocolate cake and baked a cake and some cupcakes from it, too.<br />
Then I made an orange cream and here is the finished orange chocolate cake, decorated of course with orange slices:<br />

I My Sweet God, it was heavenly!!! I love cookies and cakes and sweets!<br />
And I love chocolate!<br />
The cream was so... creamy, with orange juice and zest and pieces of orange and heavy cream in it. And the cake... well... it was made with cocoa and chocolate. Yummy!!!!!!!!!!!!<br />
And of course, I made a lot of cream, too much cream. And didn't know what to do with it. So I took some savoiardi, soaked them in coffee and lined them up in a bowl, then covered them in orange cream, took some cupcakes, sliced them up and put them on top of the cream and then decorated with whipped cream and orange slices. Mmmmmmmmmmmmm, this was sooooo good, too!<br />

I don't know about you, but me... I stuff myself at week-ends, and then try to loose that weight during the week. Just to start over again on Fridays!!!<br />
<br />
I hope you enjoyed my cakes. I will gladly send you the recipe, should you like to give it a try!<br />

It is amazing what you can do in just a few easy steps and with a couple of textures.<br />
Here is the original version of my picture, the one I started from:<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
And the very same picture plus one texture:<br />

And plus two textures:<br />

What do you think? Tell me which one do you like the best?Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12955988810344693730noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-571240480528962643.post-31742706684854954162012-02-01T11:37:00.006+02:002012-12-07T22:19:02.490+02:00Process or Not Process PicturesSo this is the question. Should I process pictures or should I not? And more, to what extent?<br />
I like pictures as they are when originally taken.<br />
Nevertheless, I also like some processing. It is great fun.<br />
But this also takes time. And learning!!! But there are some extremely simple actions that can be applied, which, I might say, radically change the look of the original photo. One great advantage is you don't need a very good photo. Not even a good one!<br />
<br />
Here are just a few processed pics that I took last year in the Bazaar of Sarajevo.<br />
