From me, nothing magical, ... just this, for the first one:



Because the image is such a long panoramic, not much detail visible here in the big thumbnail version. Maybe I'll download the full size and add this to my response, so a zoom in is possible.

Here it is uploaded, full-size, to FAA, where you can use the zoom-in feature to check out the texture:

Thankfully these are just for fun and just to see what you can do :-)

Because of its length, when uploaded at full size to FAA, it sort of acts as a secondary webpage banner for my artist page of images, so there is YOUR name right up there at the top of my images now. (^_^). I'm keeping it that way, because I think it looks pretty cool.

Days are tough on the farm, if you don't own your own, you work on one. Toiling hard in the fields, picking crops, earning money, sometimes you get to keep some for your family. Its a long hard day, and the menfolk are coming home finally. The womenfolk are out and waiting, dinner is cooking and will be ready soon.

Autumn is here, and there is a chill in the air, lots of chores to do to prepare for the winter, but its nice to just have a break now and then. But be sure to prepare, you wouldn't want to starve over the winter.


i only liked half the panorama, this site tends to murder panorama's...

This is a collaboration with an FAA/Pixels' artist, Abbie Shores. I completely edited Abbie's photograph from a location in England, and turned it into a mansion and garden you might find in a city like Miami Florida. It has a retro "paint by number" look to it. Pastel stucco homes are many in Florida... they are one of my favorite things about the state.

(Also, many leaves had some sort of blight on them which caused dark brown spots and holes (locusts?). I fixed all of that first by using the spot healing brush in PS )

Nothing say's I'm sorry, like a rose can. Sorry I slept with that younger woman, sorry I skipped out on the bill, sorry I ran over your cat. It works in a number of ways.

The rose is the flower of choice for other things as well, such as weddings or funerals. Often seen in red on Valentines day.

......painting as fast as I can !!!!!! I hope to be able to get into the contest !!!!

and

Finally finished the painting. I entered the contest with this and hope the very tight zoomed in close-up of the two pink rose buds is acceptable.
If you required more of the original scene to remain, feel free to delete my contest entry.

Autumn is my favorite time of the year. I love driving the back roads and discovering new places. There are apple orchards and pumpkin farms to delight the eye. I often stop to pick fresh apples to make a fresh delicious apple pie.

One day I was driving on a country road in Pennsylvania, and saw three beautiful quilts hanging on a clothesline. I stopped and knocked on the porch door of a lovely country home. A friendly little old lady came out, and I asked her if her quilts were for sale. She invited me inside to show me more quilts, but I bought the three hanging on the clothesline.

A beautiful lady lives in this big mansion, and her favorite rose is the Pink Damask Rose. This is a close up of a Pink Damask Rose growing at the mansion garden behind a metal fence. There are over thirty varieties of rose bushes in the garden. Bouquets of fresh roses are placed throughout the mansion during the rose blooming season.

I've decided to combine the 2 images.....It took me hours, fumbling my way to produce this

If I can regain energy before 4:00 AM I might get back to refine this image...Especially the leaves

Looking at the submissions I see many images that don't appear to have anything to do with the contest. It would help to have the date when the contest starts stated on the first page of this thread. I have missed two including this one. I get busy and lose track of when this contest starts. The best part of this is I made an image that I learned something new (thanks Abbie!) and I will use for one of my Christmas cards and Christmas gallery here.

Congratulations winners! It is always a pleasure to see how other artists interpret the reference image.

I got more votes than I usually get in a contest so I guess that's something.

i figure its only a dollar extra, and if i don't get it now, our power could be cut off from a big storm that's going to hit us soon and over the weekend. bye fall trees...
