 This was supposed to be a quick one for tonight. I have scrapbooking tonight, I have been working all day ( I am a relieving teacher , subsitute teacher to you Americans!) so I only had a small window of time where i could play. My scrapbooking friends get cross with me coz I spend way more time and energy on photography than scrapbooking!I wanted to stay at home and play tonight but I could'nt! So here I ma having put off cooking tea and running late for scrapbooking as I could'nt do this quickly!
We have a grapevine these are baby grapes :) here's the original [thumb]610604[/thumb]

The overlays add a feeling of motion to this one (with the swishes). Cool effect.

This one turned out beautifully! Love the "melancholy" feeling it gives. I actually really like this one. In looking at it, one thing that strikes me though is that it looks so green and fresh, and that that somehow clashes just a bit with the feeling of sadness that comes from the drops streaks, and the bricks. I wonder if toning down the greens a bit would work, maybe getting them a shade closer to reds or reddish yellows?
