The Design of a Palm Tree - 3

Pin It This is my third post that showcases my creativity in manipulating a photo I took of a palm tree.  To see my previously posted pictures of this palm tree, click here for the first set and click here for the second.

Here I have taken the original photo and made it look vintage.

 In this image, I tiled the original image in evenly spaced rows.

In the next four images, I have given the palm tree photo the look of a hand-carved, rubber stamped image.  I liked it so much, I repeated it in multiple colors.




So, what do you think?  Leave a comment and let me know which one is your favorite! Pin It

Round Robin Photo Challenge: Something Old Something New

Pin It

The theme for today's challenge was "Something Old, Something New".  I took this picture at a local, out-door, community market this week...it's a place where local farmers sell  meat, veggies and milk, local artists sell jewelry and all manner of home-made crafts and down-home, earthy items.  This picture is a snap-shot of a modern day mother with her two daughters....and yet, if the picture were in black and white, if the people were wearing different styles of clothing, and if the child were not wearing a bike helmet....it could have easily been taken back in the 50's.  I thought about making it a black and white picture...but I didn't want to lose the vibrant colors of the bikes, food truck and clothing....a little piece of modern day nostalgia.  Enjoy!
