i'm looking at your thumbs in the thread and saw this one .. of course it was the first one i opened .. as i love dogs ..
this is SOOOOOO good Melethia .. i doubt a 'real' camera could have come up with something better ..
I LOVE SNAPSEED .. its a great app .. also love aviary ..
and .. random shutter speeds .. yes .. lol .. ;)

Mushrooms
by Germaine

Comment:
its funny .. but i thought .. this is the sort of photo i could quite possible take while sitting on my rear end .
i hope you didnt cheat Germaine .. lol .. !! .. ;)
its a wonderful photo of those mushies .. and i'd never eat a 'mushroom' that i found growing in the ground .. i'm not expert enough to know .. and i think i know the difference between a mushroom and a toadstool ... but i'd never want to risk it .
i think the results could be catastrophic ..

gosh .. as this was loading it made me smile .. it was like a puzzle slowly revealing itself .. or so i thought ..
but the revelation has not come .. i'm still waiting for the full knowledge of this image to show itself to me ..
i think i will just enjoy the confusion .. sometimes thats the best thing .. as seeing without the brain trying to analyze can create the best impact .. of course i'm loving your black and white .. i wont say editing .. just black and white in camera .. brilliant ..
ps .. the contrast of the pure blacks and white .. LOVE IT ..

love the stark silhouette with the faded out building in the background .. its like a scream and a whimper all in the one photo .. love what you do with that camera .. :)
also its like i've stepped back in time .. thru the window its like i'm seeing a carriage that could be attached to a horse ... and not a machine with horse power and four tyres ..

whattha .. !! .. this is strange and interesting and unusual and weird .. all at once . .. and unexpected .. !!! .. ;)
of course i had to look for the feather .. and it didnt jump right out ..
but who cares about the feather .. its the doll's head in the big jacket that a serial killer might wear that interests me .. lol .. ;)

WOWSERS .. what a brilliant image .. and so fitting for your user name .. ;)

now i've read your comment ..
i'm so sorry to hear about the sadness in your life right now .. i feel your pain .. its the human condition ..
hopefully there is happiness too .. in the human condition .. to balance out the sad times ..
its the times of light that we have in our lives .. that help us weather the times of darkness .. and come out the other end .. hopefully with gratitude .. as in every dark time there is a ray of light .. :)
