SCAVENGER HUNT SUNDAY.....4-22-2012

Back home again in Indiana...Yea!!!  We got to spend some wonderful time with our family, and I was able to take some special photos.  Scavenger Hunt Sunday items: Yellow, Something that Makes/Made You Smile, Ancient or Antique, Splash and In the Sun.

Yellow - Backyard baseball..... It's not easy for a little four year old to keep his eyes on the ball and hit it with the "yellow" bat at the same time.

Something that Makes/Made You Smile - My twin grandsons piling on the ball...they  are always making me smile.

Ancient or Antique - I took a photo of some of the antique lanterns that I have collected over the years. I added a Kim Klassen texture layer to give it even more of an antique look. The lantern on the left has special meaning because my father made it many years ago.

Splash - I was hoping to go kayaking this week and get a photo of my kayak splashing into the lake, but that didn't happen, so I settled for a photo of a rock splashing in the water.

In the Sun - Most of the family time last weekend was spent outside in the sun....another shot of the youngest playing basketball. He has grown quite a bit from the splash shot last summer.

Beyond Layers - {Color Week - Yellow}

Day two of Beyond Layers Color Week...Tuesday we are taking photos of yellow things. In ACR I adjusted the exposure slightly and contrast. In Photoshop, the only other modification was a Levels Adjustment Layer.

Or a softer look, with Kim's "waterstained" texture...
