The Yellow Hisbiscus of Kauai

It is such a grey rainy day here in Vancouver, I thought I would brighten up the blog with this yellow hisbiscus taken from our garden in Princeville.

Night Sky in Hawaii

Here is an image that was about a 25 second exposure one night.  I was experimenting taking night skies (which didn't work), but liked this shot.  The cloud are lit up by the rising moon.  To the naked eye the sky was almost black and the moon light not yet visible.

How to Use Master Images

In my last post I showed a digital art image made entirely from Photoshop.  In thinking how I would use such images, I decided to experiment a little and combine some images.  I have many images of beautiful models and thought I would combine a couple of them within the pattern of the base.  Here I have combined 2 images into the base.  I will continue to combine actual photos with textured images and post some more during the coming days.

I hope you enjoy and are creating a wonderful 2011 for yourself.

Dennis

Textures and Backgrounds

Hard to believe, but for the above image no camera was used or required.  It shows the magic of Photoshop where I can create colour backgrounds and designs out of virtually nothing.  This above image will be used as a background or layer on another photography.  I can adjust the opacity to my liking making it bold as you see here, or very light so it blends with a compatible image.

Just some of my creativity getting out of control.

Live well and prosper.

Black and White Drama

Here is an image that I like in colour, but I also love the drama in this black and white rendering.  It was early morning just after sunrise and we were in the shadow with the sun starting to light the clouds and some of the crashing waves.  The moon was still visible and about 1 hour from setting in the western sky.

Images of Hawaii

This beautiful Hibiscus caught my eye while I was touring a mountain side garden with my daughter and grandson.  The evidence of recent rains complete the image to my eye.  Hope you enjoy.

A View From Secret Beach

I have just returned from Hawaii and am slowly processing some of my images.  The above is taken from "Secret Beach" looking eastward toward Kilewea Lighthouse.

Haoli Makahiki Ho or Happy New Year in Hawaiian.
