Thing 8 - Playing with Picnik

This was interesting. I added more 'heat' to these San Fransisco hot dogs. The one on the left was flat out, but had a sudden doggy nibbling-fleas moment just as I snapped him. Grrr.


Then I sharpened the focus on a St. Andrews sunrise, and created a blue border. But no, I don't want to get more with Picnik Premium for as little as $2.08 a month.


Finally, I couldn't resist giving these roses the Lomo-ish touch and embracing them in a Drop-Shadow frame. Cinematic was appealing, but Neon didn't work. Not for these roses anyway.

Thing 7 - The Flickr Exprience

This is my first foray into a new world of sharing photos. How fascinating it is to drift around the place, poking my nose into snapshots of other people's lives. It was easy to set up a Flickr account, and I was *delighted* to find that I could create my very own Flickr URL. Each to their own, I know. I don't think I will ever feel comfortable about entrusting All Photos to cyberspace, but this looks like a fun way to share sets of photos from holidays and events with friends and family. Time-consuming? Oh, yes.
