Oh how awesome!! I made Daily Pic at Pixels!

My Photo made it to Flickr Explore!!

On 15th March 2012!  And only way I found out was by people leaving me lovely comments about it on Flickr!

So behind in posting!

Blimey over a month has gone by and have neglected to post on here!  So much has happened since too.  So will start with all my photos that were accepted by Knox at Pixels – thank you so much Knox!

See London From Up Here!  The beautiful London Eye!  I do love taking photos of the London Eye and trying out so many different processes!  Took this one with ClassicPan then processed with Camera+, AutoPainter and Iris.

LOL that is me, A Rare Occurrence!  Yeah I hate having my photo taken and am always behind the camera, not in front of it!  Was messing around with the iPad and took photo with PowerSketch and processed it with PixelWorks (which has disappeared from my iPad and from iTunes store, shame) and Pixlromatic.

High Tide in Old Isleworth – love this scene, just round the corner from me!  Took photo with ClassicPan then processed it with Camera+, AutoPainter, Painteresque, DynamicLight, Iris

Lucy’s Turn – my sweet little Lucy!  I struggle to take a good photo of her coz she always moves, or looks down or gives me the evil eye or runs away!  She is a Russian Blue and has the most amazing eyes, as per her photo!  Cropped it with CropSuey and then processed with Camera+, Snapseed and Laminar.

Off the Piste!  Yes great Apres Ski!  Taken with 6x6 then processed with Camera+, AutoPainter, AutoPainterII, Iris, PhotoToaster

Little Hut – from the same skiing resort!  6x6, PhotoToaster and Iris

I went on an Instagram Meet a couple of weekends ago where our mission was to photograph the Northern Line Tube!  I didn’t visit all the stations but did get some amazing photos and 3 have been posted in Pixels but will do a separate post with all my tube photos!  Above 3 were taken with Lomora 2 and processed with Snapseed and PhotoToaster

The Reflection Under the Bridge – I love this scene.  Every time I walk into Richmond and pass the railway line I stop to take a photo of the reflection if the weather is nice and the water is still!  Had to turn it into a painterly look!  6x6, Camera+, AutoPainter, Iris

Intensity!  Last but not least my little Lucy made it again!!  Hipstamatic and Snapseed

Feed me Too–After and Before!

So excited and happy to see that Feed me Too made it to both Pixels and CreateHive – thank you to both sites so much for choosing my images!

I spent quite sometime working on this image.  Cropped it first with CropSuey – then used Camera+ Clarity Filter, then I think I used one of the light Drama filters in Snapseed and used one of Snapseed’s Grunge filters.  Created a couple of different filters in AutoPainter and AutoPainterII – then spent some time in Iris blending and masking.  I think I also put image through DynamicLight but can’t remember now!  I should write everything down! 
Anyhow, below is the Before photo!

Amazing what a bit of cropping can do to a photo!
Feed Us was from the same photo shoot but I had a different look to it :

and below is the Before!

Again cropped the photo and then used TouchRetouch to remove some of the seagulls.  Think for this one I only used AutoPainter and AutoPainterII then blending and masking with Iris.

Below are a few others accepted in Pixels – thank you so much!
This one I took from my Aunt’s house in Turin.

This was last weekend with the snow – Low Tide in Old Isleworth

And on the same day too at Old Isleworth

Garden equipment at my Aunt’s in Turin

Before and After

Thought it would be a good idea to post my edited images and also show the originals – so guess this is After and Before!


By the river round the corner from me.  Took photo with ClassicPan, then used Snapseed, DynamicLight, ModernGrunge and Iris


The London Wharf Pub, again round the corner from me.  Took original photo with Hipstamatic, then used PhotoToaster and ModernGrunge


The Royal Albert Hall.  Took original photo with Lomora2 then used TinyPlanets, Painteresque and Iris

Creating

It has been lovely to have the time to be at home and work on photos.  Last Thursday I took my Dad to see Cirque du Soleil – Totem at The Royal Albert Hall.  The show was magnificent!  We went to the afternoon show so I got there early to take some photos of the area.  Then flew out to Italy with all the family on Friday to celebrate my Aunt’s 90th!!  My Aunt lives up on a hill on the outsides of Turin and has no Internet!!  So I had plenty of time on the plane and at my Aunt’s to edit photos too.
I took this one when I went round Kew Gardens and this was inside the Glass House which was all steamy and foggy!

This one is outside The Royal Albert Hall and it is The Albert Memorial

To get to The Royal Albert Hall you go to South Kensington tube station and then walk a long way in the underpass!  Wanted to try out Lomora2 so was really happy with this image (and he has a nice bum!)

The beautiful National History Museum – really pleased how this came out as took from a distance, had to crop it and use TouchRetouch to remove a van at the front!

I have not used TinyPlanets in such a long time and I love that app!  So chuffed with the results when I used it on this photo of The Royal Albert Hall!
