I just posted this work on a Sunflower to Fineart America and thought you might like to take a look. It was shot during late afternoon as the sun was coming through the window. I used a background layer work and placed a wet layer image over the front to give the water drop effect from Smart Photo. Hope you like it!

Hi all,
Thought you might like to take a look at an autumn photo I took in the UK. The bridge across the river “By Brook” to the Manor House Hotel in Castle Combe UK on the edge of the Cotswolds. A magical “Harry Potter” village. The whole area is a wonderful place to visit and I would recommend it to anyone!!
Thanks for taking a look,

Hi all,
I was inspired to put this together from another picture using wet glass. I took five pictures of the sunflowers with different exposures and fused them in an HDR program. Then I used filter software to create the wet glass layer look and blended it together. Let me know if you like it!!

Hi everyone,
Hope you are having a great holiday season. I just reworked one of my latest photos with some film noir filters and quite like the result. I thought you might like to take a look and let me know what you think.

I have also put it on fineartamerica just in case you feel like putting it on you wall. That would be nice 🙂 Anyway, let me know what you think and have a wonderful holiday season…

Put a brick in your toilet!
Though many states and localities are waking up to their water shortages and taking steps to plan for “peak water”, people generally continue to waste water and to ignore the energy-water link.
