Bumble

Gotta love the zoom lens on the new camera.

Bumble bees do not stay in one spot for long.

I think this shot might work for my composition class this week.

This is my favorite of the bunch. Reminds me of "Kilroy was here" grafitti.

Death and Afterlife

Another book in the Dark Themes round robin. What happens when you die?
I have no particular religious beliefs.

I've always found the Mexican Day of the Dead traditions appealing.
I love this stamp design from After Midnight. My sister drew this laughing skeleton. :)
The headstone is a photograph from a nearby cemetary. Photocollaged them together and did dry embossing.

I did some dry embossing on the rose photos. I take a lot of flower photographs.
Sketched in the branches with a Sharpie Marker.

Another of my sister's stamp designs. I just used the skull portion of this one.
I used real dirt and sand in this. Adhered with Golden brand GAC. I hope it holds up.


More bones. I have bones going down into the earth on the first page and coming back up and turning into flowers on the second page.

More time wasting fun

Heat Wave

It is too hot to do anything worthwhile.
I found a nifty place to play with images though...
