tlc Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 (edited) Ok Heres my effort for today, and effort it was, I was just not inspired today but this challenge is really making me think of things I can shoot. The first one is my collection of Shells and the second one (because I just couldnt choose shells over my boy Bronson) I liked it Im not even sure why I just did. Maybe tomorow Ill be more inspired!! Lea, Im having another dippy moment, is that a real doggy with your dog or is it a stuffed toy, either way it is very cute. Iltby, I had a go at making a name on my pics but I only got as far as the first direction as I couldnt even figure out how to create a blank canvas :rolleyes: I will however keep trying!! edited cause my spelling is sick!!

Kirislin Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 (edited) sigh, great photos everyone, those weather ones are spectacular! My whippets were not feeling cooperative today, the girlies just wanted to go inside and Puck had an itch to be scratched. Oh yeah, I deliberately went to the strawberry farm because they've got these beautiful purple roses, a colour I have never seen before and I thought I'll take some pics of them for the challenge, well, it was way too challenging. too windy so no purple roses :rolleyes: Edited January 15, 2009 by Kirislin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iltby Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 (edited) You must be very patient iltby with those ants. I am sure you will get that million dollar shot that you are after. Personally I think they are very good I've been sitting out there for 20 mins or so each day, I get fed up pretty quickly I have to stand there trying to be very still so I get tired fairly quickly. Thanks very much for your encouragement, I really appreciate it ILTBY, I realy like the first shot/ Thanks Lea Iltby, I had a go at making a name on my pics but I only got as far as the first direction as I couldnt even figure out how to create a blank canvas I will however keep trying!!edited cause my spelling is sick!! Love your sea shell shot Tlc Sorry about that, I'll explain in more detail. To open a new canvas just hit ctrl + n (or command + n if you're on a Mac). That will look like this- Enter in a width and height - 300 x 150 pixels would probably be a reasonable size. Then go to the drop down menu next to 'background contents' and choose 'transparent'. Now you've got a canvas that looks like this- Go to your type tool- And type out your preferred watermark- Then go to your layers panel on the right, find the 'fx' button and hit 'outer glow'- Choose the colour of your outer glow (I chose white), fiddle with the noise, the opacity (I went with 75%) the spread (how far it extends from the font), its size and its range and hit OK- Now go back to your layers panel and change the fill to 0% - Now try dragging that onto one of your photos to see how it looks. Play around if you don't like it (hope you don't mind me using your photo as an example)- Hope that helps, let me know if you have any questions! Good luck Edited January 15, 2009 by iltby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bow Wow Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 I know i have already put todays photo up, but I just took some photos of Nemo, that I love.. Nemo is very special to me, he was the first marine fish I purchased four years ago, and he is the last fish from many marine fish that I have had. I took down my tank, but could not part with Nemo, so I keep this little tank going just for him. I have nursed Nemo back from near death, and I beleive that he and I share a special bond. Anyway here is Nemo. and Nemo waving to me.... "> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ripley Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 (edited) PM, what a gorgeous boofhead of a male budgie there. Lovely markings around the bib too. He looks like a show bird I have another wild parrot shot today. I am very fond of the 2 adult lorikeets who bring me a baby twice a year to show me and proud parents they are too. I can hear a baby in the tree and then one day, he'll appear with them at the nectar bowl. They don't roost in our big tree though. Once that baby matures, they start chasing him/her off and they are on their own to find their own territory. So far, they still let this one eat with them but she is feeding herself now. I think this one is a little girl. She was back today with mum and dad after the cool change we had. Edited January 15, 2009 by Ripley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayC Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 Quickly trying to get in by 12 and don't think I'll make it but here goes: My fav. tree, next to the Elm and the Jacaranda: Crepe Myrtle (Can't wait for it to lose it's annual bark) and another, maybe it's me, but this one made me laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirislin Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 I must come here 10 times a day to see the updates. I love seeing what everyone has photographed it's a snapshot into our lives isn't it. Ripley what do you feed the loris? What is nectar, I know they would naturally get it from flowers but what is the commercial nectar. I've had loris come here a couple of times and they just had a nibble of the bird seed but they haven't come back now since the last time I got pics of them. If I knew what to put out for them I would get some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
