Working on scale in my Photoshop class.  This definitely didn’t turn out like I wanted it to, but only because of the contrast in the shadows which happened because I accidentally knocked over my flash stand and broke the flash diffuser I was using.  I will be attempting this again once my new one arrives…

This week we had to do a panorama image from 10 photographs.  I thought the assignment was really easy for me since this is something I have done before, but practice never hurt anyone!  This is a view of the deer at the back of base, right across the road from where Dan works.  Yes, Robyn, we definitely live in a rural area now!  I am just bummed we can’t get the deer to come to our salt block behind the house.  Any suggestions????

I was quite bummed though that I could not do this assignment where I wanted but they haven’t plowed all the roads on the base. The second image is one that has a sepia tint and texture overlay on it to make it look aged.

It’s Girl Scout cookie time in our house!  Kati picked up the 75 boxes of cookies that she had on order to sell today.  This year the girls go out with cookies in hand.  They will have cookie sales from now until March 4th.  She sold over 80 boxes worth today!!!  So needless to say we have ordered more to have on hand for the next month.  She is hoping to sell about 60 more.  If anyone wants cookies, let us know…

I have spent my day babysitting and working on homework.  Cole had so much fun since his best friend, Peter, got to spend the morning hanging out.  I peeked in on them when they were quiet and this is what I found.  They were just maxed out reading.  Too cute!

This is a couple from the herd of deer that live on Minot AFB!  They spent the day hanging out at the park.  Since the road has never been plowed to get to the park, they are the only ones who can hang out there…

I am working on a new assignment for the week-infrared and solarization images in Photoshop.  It is a lot of fun.  Here are my conversions…

Yes, that is actually a bit of blue sky.  The sky here has been white for what seems like weeks on end.  I was so thrilled that we got slightly warmer temps and a bit of blue sky.
