At Wallington for Three Photo Challenges




Sunflowers


I've got a new phone, a Pixel 7 Pro and I've been experimenting with the macro feature. I'm impressed with the details on these dying sunflowers..
{I resized the photos to 8oo pixels on the largest side for the blog, don't know if this alters the viewing of details too much]

I painted some leaves this week to alter a Frida Kahlo painting I did a while back.
This is the original painting after I altered the butterfly as it didn't stand out enough

The leaves were separated and arranged in photoshop, I included the Frida painting and it is now a repeating pattern for fabric. I can't make my mind up whether I like it or not.

Some of them have stalks with flowers growing from another flower head below.


Altered Doodle
I used pens for the original doodle

Birds
I drew the birds for a project I am working on, you'll see it sometime in the future hopefully. I thought it would be interesting to keep the birds black and white and use some of my phots for the backgrounds.

Pen Doodle which I didn't like so I altered it in Photoshop
