I love taking pictures!! I love how the top photo turned out. I used it for my screen saver last summer. The petals look so iridescent. I don't use any photo editing software. I usually just download and go. If I want to participate in a few more "photography" parties I am going to have to find some type of program to use. Any recommendations? "free" is always a plus!!
Those purple flowers are Clematis, aren't they? Beautiful! I can't wait til mine are that plentiful!
ReplyDeleteWhen I have to edit pics I use GIMP. It's free, easy to use, and you can download it here:

Have a great weekend!
Yes Della they are Clematis. And this plant isn't mine either, I was dog sitting for a guy at work and his yard was amazing. I took lots of pictures. Thank for the software!!
DeleteI love the purple of this flower. So pretty. For editing my photos I use Photoshop Elements.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the input!
DeleteSuch freshness, colour and shapes. Beautiful....
ReplyDeleteBest regards, Karin
Thank you very much. I really got lucky on the. First shot.
DeleteBeautiful, Roxanne! Great color! Nice work.
ReplyDeleteThank you very much
DeleteThis looks to be a Jackmanii clematis. I have a couple and they are lovely.
ReplyDeleteI use pixlr.com which is a free online photo editor.
Thanks so much for sharing at Your Sunday Best this week, Roxanne. :)
It is a clematis indeed. Aren't they so pretty!
DeleteYour first shot is gorgeous. I'm trying out a few new photo editors since my go-to program is being pulled by google. I've fooled around a bit with pixlr.com (both the simple and more complex versions) & picmonkey.com. So far I'm not finding exactly what works best for me so I'm still looking.
ReplyDeleteThank you. And thanks for the software input!
DeleteSuch a vibrant shade of purple, lovely.
ReplyDeleteThank you very much ive always thought this was a special shot. I don't get very many that I feel that way about
DeleteWhat a gorgeous shot. Love it. Thanks for sharing with the newbie party.
ReplyDeleteThank you and thank you once again for hosting!
DeleteCalling by from My Favourite Photo Monday as another participant, what a beautiful clematis. Like Cheryl I have been using Picnik and have not found anything to match it yet, I like to make collages which you may notice if you call by News From Italy. :)

DeleteHi Roxanne, I love the honesty in your profile. Taking the first step into blogging is a little scary like, "What am I Doing Here". It looks like we both started blogging about the same time. I have truly been enjoying the journey and meeting so many interesting people along the way. I really like your blog, it has already given me an intriguing interest to see your lovely dream island. Speaking of dreams . . . you know that every wonderful thing that never happens in our life, starts first with a dream. One of my favorite quotes is, "Dream Big & Work Hard". That's how you make your dreams come true. I want to invite you over to my blog . . . come visit and join my journey, too. Your newest follower, Connie :)
ReplyDeleteHi Connie, I popped over to your blog and loved your post about the backroads of Oregon. I am following you too.
DeleteHi Roxanne!
ReplyDeleteThat clematis is such a beautiful color! If that looks so good and you haven't enhanced it then you are already a great photographer!
Thanks for sharing at my party this week!

Wednesday's Bunny Hop Party!
Ahh..thanks Bunny Jean and thank you for stopping by.
ReplyDeleteLove clematis - never grew it successfully but going to give it another go this year!!
ReplyDeleteI am a point and shoot gal but PicMonkey is a great photo editing site - it's free too!
Kelly
This clematis isn't mine - but my dad gave me a small vine last year that looks like it is going to be very pretty (although still small) this year. Thanks for the software advice.
DeleteCool photo! I've never seen this flower before. I love the purple color! So vibrant!
