Visual Variety 3

No prizes for guessing what I've been up to lately! I've spent a fair bit of time learning about Photoshop Elements - a great imaging programme from Adobe. You can do SO much if you have the time and the patience. Love it!

Church in East Perth. Had some fun distressing this one.

A door at Mundaring Weir.

A house in the country in the Middle Swan area. Nice colours!

hola from deep south argentina. hoping to get some great photos down here, the landscape is incredible and the weather is very wild. but i won't be photoshopping though - preservation of purity, mark.

too true - i go with the fiction vs non fiction argument on this one - if it didnt really happen its not as inspiring!

... tell that to the Edge and to and Jonny Buckland! it's all about creating an emotion and eliciting a response...

well, i reckon there's a difference there. see i can photoshop a bad photo to make a good - crop it, change the colours, the exposure, endless other possibilities. but i've yet to find a guitar effect that makes me sound great when i'm my playing is actually rubbish. i guess this is what happens in the studio a lot though - a-la britney or ashlee. maybe we just agree to disagree. i actually have photoshop, but have never loaded it. i love the challenge of the raw image. I have just completed another "sessionsixty" on patagonia, but the internet won't let me load stuff to my site, really frustrating. yet to see your sessionsixty attempt mark.... serge and rian have taken up the challenge - only takes an hour and you don't even need to spend all that time photoshopping!
