]]>This gallery is a collection of photos that I have had a little fun with. I have a lot to learn about Photoshop and other photo editing software, I guess the best way to learn is to just get in there and see what it can do. Sometimes I might read a tutorial and test it out, other times I might just play around with filters, textures, and layering to see what comes out.

Ice & Snow In Black & White

]]>Winter Time In Kansas

Simple Black and White

We remember when our world was white
With lightning streaks in sight of black,
And not a host of grays to track,
To muddle-up our days.
Nostalgia makes our memories dearer;
Nights seem brighter; days seem clearer.
We remember times “back then”
When life was simply living;
Life was loving, working, giving -
Play by day and pray by night,
When wrong was wrong and right was right.
We see the black each time
We remember when our world was white.

I once knew the way of simple black and white
But now without the gray the contrast is too bright
Almost cartoonish, edges stark -
The white too light, the black too dark.
I need some shades of gray to soften
Like the halos seen so often
‘Round the once hard edges auras
Make a slight off-white distortion
This my part of marbled portion
Round the black a charcoal hue
Can blend the soot – so black it’s blue
Gray adds luster to my life
Once I quit recalling simple black and white.

Abstracts

kkhphotos@rocketmail.com (KKH Photos) — Fri, 24 May 2013 00:00:00 GMT

]]>Each of these fun digital abstracts started life as one of my photos and were re-created into the colorful swirling images you see here. I have given a few of these images titles myself and then asked my creative family to help come up with titles for the rest. I'll try to note in the captions where the titles came from. Thanks for your help guys!

Oh; if you see a title that says -from #1 or #5 or some other number those titles came from my siblings. I have 7 of them and I think they are having a lot of fun with this project!

Want to have some fun with us? Add your title ideas in the comments. Keep it clean... this is a family site. :)

Abstracts like these are great for canvas wall art, desktop wallpaper, and cell phone backgrounds!

Oil & Water

kkhphotos@rocketmail.com (KKH Photos) — Fri, 24 May 2013 00:00:00 GMT

]]>For these colorful images I had some fun with a clear glass baking dish, cooking oil, and a colorful torn paper background.
I placed the dish onto of four glasses to hold it above the background and dropped in the cooking oil. Using a telephoto zoom with an extension tube attached I tried to focus on the "bubbles" of oil that floated on top of the water.
