Ebb and flow

Posted by amy (Nanaimo, BC, Canada) on 6 October 2007 in Landscape & Rural and Portfolio.

Found a new technique kids. It's called "tilt and shift". It can make an otherwise flat image turn into something with depth. This is best viewed large.

We're celebrating Thanksgiving this weekend in Canada. A time to give thanks for the many blessings we have in our lives. So I give thanks for my family who love and support me, friends who love me despite my annoying habits, and the life of freedom we enjoy and sometimes take for granted. Peace to all my Am3 friends.

You can view my gallery of images and calendar for sale at: cute but stupid . I'm slowly adding more to the site and if there is something in my portfolio you would like to purchase but is not available on my site just contact me and I'll make it available.

I appreciate all visits and comments and thank you always... ;-)
