Friends forever!

My friends are one of the most important things in my life. God has blessed me with the most loving and amazing fiends in the world! I have been friends with my five best fiends for a long time,but as you can see only four of us are in this picture. One of my best friends graduated last year, but all five of us still stay in touch with each other and actually see each other alot. I have been best friends with one of my friends for almost 17 years! My other two friends, I've been friends with them for about 14 years. My friends and I always have adventures just us four,but most of all with our church youth group! We're always together! This picture was taken at the park. It was originally taken in color but I thought that it would add memories in some way if were in black and white. I played around with the coloring with this picture,like by adding different colors with the black and white, but in the end this is what I ended up with. :)
Proverbs 17:17 "A friends loves at all times." Thank you God for my friends.

Magenta Beach Chair

This past summer, I was enjoying the summer weather in Mississippi with my grandmother,mother, and sister. It was a total adventure! I love the beach theme. The beach theme is currently what my room is decorated in :) This picture was taken by myself on a Mississippi beach. I fixed it in Photoshop elements 8. The picture itself was originally a very gloomy,gray picture. Well, I didn't like that, because I love the cheerful colors and warm summer air. So, i lightened the picture by adjusting the lighting. I changed the water from a gray to a magenta by cutting out the water then painting it them lowering the opacity.
Proverbs 12: 25 "An a anxious heart weighs a man down, but a kind word cheers him up."

The White Christmas Tree

This winter, In my beautiful home town, it snowed 8 inches or more! As long as I have lived here It has never snowed so much. It soooo beautiful! I couldnt believe my peepers! It was white ALL around, on the trees,the houses,the roads. It was just amazing. I took this photo in my front yard,one day when it was snowing. I wanted to capture the amazing creation of snow made by my Father. I fixed this photo in Photoshop Elements 8. The picture itself was kinda blury in the background so naturally the eye would draw immediately to the tree and the snow. I sharpened the tree to make it seem more realistic and the perfect detail and gentleness of the snow flakes.When I got into Photoshop I blurred the the background a little more with the blur filter and made it black and white. having the background blurred and black and white makes the person looking a the photo wonder what is in the back ground.I think it is so amazing how God created everything and it all has a purpose and its made flawless and unique just like you and me.Genesis 1: 27 " So created man in his own image,in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them."

Feelin the LOVE !

I'm feelin the love!.....right...about... NOW!
Love is the answer for everything. If it weren't for Christ dieing on the cross we wouldn't have love. "Love never fails" 1 Corinthians 13:8.
In this photo i actually took it with a Kodak digital camera, I found a verse in the Bible that just had the headline as love. I laid my ring on the Bible where you could see the word love through the ring hole. I laid down on the ground and set my camera setting to where I could take pictures of text, and I zoomed in on the word to focus on that so everything else would be blurry. Next, I put it on Photoshop and and brightened the picture so the word love would pop out more than everything else, and would be more white and incandescent. It wasn't the look I was wanting so, I said, let me see how it would look if I made it look sorta like an old photo. Well, what do ya know, it worked! I love my picture so much! It really shows my ability of what I can do.<3

Converse Poster

This is my Converse Poster. I have come to love the amazing Photoshop! I just recently got photoshop for christmas, and couldn't wait to get started. This poster i made i took myself and edited myself.

I took this picture on my front porch. I changed the color of the metal shoelace holes to pink by using the Magnetic Lasso Tool, then using the paint brush to make them pink and then lowered the opacity to make them look like they're actually that color.Then i colored the All star shoe tounges orange then lowered the opacity. To make the picture a little more eye catching I put a layer on it to make it look like an old picutre. When i put the word Converse on there, I put it sideways so if it were in a display window it would draw the eye to what the product was.
