Where I post about my road trips, photo shoots, inspirations and tips. |
I decided I needed a business card for this reception today. I can leave some at the gallery as well so I set out to create a photo that I could use on these cards. After trying a few, I determined that one large photo being the background for the whole sheet of business cards would work best. I figured if I had a long tall image that I could put in the center of the page, half would be on the right hand side of the cards and the other would be on the left hand side of the others. I did want cards that were not exactly the same so this kind of photo would accomplish that goal as well. During the editing of the image I was cloning some areas and by chance made a ghost like copy of the film strip. I decided that worked really well. I added another on the other side and voila I had the image I needed.
I printed the business cards on matte photo paper in black and white. Really happy with these!!!

I have been advised that of these two photos accepted into the Juried Members Show one is a winner. I will find out tomorrow at the reception at 1:00 pm which it is and the prize. I think it will be the Wilson Snipe. Check back here tomorrow when I will reveal the results. I was wrong and a few of those who guessed were right. It was the Silver Roadster that won 3rd prize out of 39 entries. The entries in the show included photography, watercolor, acrylic, encaustic, pencil crayon, graphite, oil, mixed media & pyrography. Silver Roaster 15 x 15 inch frame 8 x 8 inch Color photo This photo was taken at an antique mall in town. It is a metal car book end. Again, taken for a Flickr Challenge of circles. The circle of headlight, wheel, and wheel reflection. Who Are You?
14 x 14 inch frame 6 x 6 inch Color photo This photo was taken at the John Poole Wetlands in Sturgeon County. It is a Wilson Snipe. He just looked at me while I took many photos. It was in the setting sun and the light was wonderful. I dropped off three pieces at the gallery yesterday morning and busied myself with other things during the day. I returned after 3pm to see which one(s) were selected for the show. Each participant was guaranteed to have one piece in the show. This one was left on the table and will not be hanging in the art gallery on this week. Juxtaposition
13.5 x 17.5 inch frame 8 x 12 inch Color photo This photo was taken down town last summer for a challenge on Flickr. The front building is the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce which was built in 1919 in the late Renaissance Revival style. The building behind is one of the Scotia Place towers built in 1983 which has a glass facade. I found these two buildings contrast in several ways very interesting.
