  • Euphorbia griffithii at Culzean Castle — FOTD Jul 31

    Euphorbia griffithii at Culzean Castle — FOTD Jul 31

    Hi All 👋 My latest post for Cee’s FOTD.

    We’re now moving on to Culzean Castle & its grounds in Ayrshire for the next series of flowers & settings

    Euphorbia griffithii, more commonly known as Griffith’s Spurge, is native to Bhutan, Tibet, & southwest China.

    I’ve done a few simple style edits for these wee flowers — pastel, made of stars, concept art & abstract

    If you follow my blog, you know I’m currently working on a project fusing my photography with AI creativity. For more on my journey with AI, check out my Fan Of… series, the latest of which is a reimagining of some lensball shots.

    Ceanothus — Weekend FOTD Jun 15/16

    Hi All 👋 My latest post for Cee’s Weekend FOTD.

    With Cee recuperating, I’ll be posting flowers daily to give her a bit of floral delight (my version of a bouquet)

    The ceanothus is more commonly known as buckbrush, California lilac & soap bush.

    As with my latest Fan Of… post (see link), I’m exploring some DALL-E AI preset styles for my edits.

    For today, I’ve done an abstract transformation of these vibrant wee flowers.

    Breaking Through — Spies, Lies & Digital Skies & CWWC

    Hi All 👋 My latest post for Susan’s Digital Art Challenge: Ambush in a Shadowy Forest.

    As this involves an ambush on a track through a forest, this is also my post for Cee’s Which Way Challenge.

    This was quite a simple one & required only one baseline photo to base my prompt on in Hot Mods.

    This first attempt came out really well. It shows a dispatch rider breaking through an ambush in a forest.

    I decided to also winterise the scene & added a sidecar to the bike.

    As usual, I could have stopped here, but where’s the fun in thatNext up is a cyberpunk-style image, as seen through the scope of a sniper following the action; this one’s my definite favourite.

    My next favourite is this abstract-style re-imagining of the scene.

    As usual, there were many different runs in different styles, including the ambush being viewed from a command centre. Enjoy these in the carousel below

    One other picture I really liked was this Baroque-style one; the bike looks really ornate & cool.

    Abstracts — Lens-Artists Challenge #296

    Hi All 👋 My entry for this week’s challenge, set by Ritva.

    This is an interesting challenge; I’ve never really dabbled in the world of abstract, so here we go.

    My first group could fit in a “what is it?” category of abstract.

    This first shot looks like an alien forest; it’s a macro shot of dew on moss.

  • Glasgow Abstract — PFTW 53

    Glasgow Abstract — PFTW 53

    Hi All 👋 Here’s my entry for Brashley’s PFTW: Abstract.

    Inspired by Brashley’s awesome image, I decided to have a go at creating some of my own using the symmetry function in FX Photo Studio Pro and some Glasgow landmarks, as well as some plants from the Glasgow Botanical Gardens. I got a bit carried away and couldn’t decide which one to post, so here they all are

    Hi All 👋 This week Patti hits us with abstract!

    There was a lot of head scratching going on for this one; so after much looking up of the word and gaining inspiration from all the other fantastic entries for this weeks challenge, I decided on these pics, which I think hit the mark?
