Edits, Camping and Standers

Filed Under: Family, Photography, Special Needs Tagged With: cerebral palsy, Holoprosencephaly

Here is my edit of Jen from Mama Schell Says photo. I wanted to make it look like an old timey painting. What do you all think?

I did a lot to this photo. I first opened it up in Camera Raw and made slight adjusment {though it looked good SOOC} Then I ran some of my favorite Pioneer Woman actions. I then added Kim Klassen’s Granny’s Cupboard texture. I then used Pixel Blender’s Oil Paint effect.

Here there are beside together so you can compare.

 
My Before & After Edit
This is one from our camping trip. Dustyn is so adorable. Love his sweet smile.

{Rollover image to see the before}

 

Here is Carsyn in his new {loaned} stander. He LOVES it. He looks so big and tall in it. We are still waiting to hear from insurance whether they will pay for any of his equipment.
Dustyn giving Carsyn a kiss.
Obviously those were taken with my new iPhone. Yippee. I really do love it and love all the cool photo apps. I will have to do a post on them all one day.

 

One last one for Texture Thursday. This was taken while camping also.

It was an adventure to get there but we finally di It was an adventure to get there but we finally did. The place we normally park was closed for repaving so we went on the hunt for a new place. It was a nice secluded spot that we might just make our new spot. The kids had a blast, I am glad it stays shallow here plus we didn’t have to worry about waves.

Project 365 photo catch up. Can’t believe it is Project 365 photo catch up. Can’t believe it is almost the end of May! Had my hair trimmed yesterday, and my eyebrows tinted. The eyebrow dye last for about 4-6 weeks. It gradually lightens up over time. I included the photo of Annie after she did her “makeup”. This project 365 isn’t looking like I thought it would. I was hoping to use my DSLR more but end up just using my phone and using random photos I take during the day. Nothing specific or set up pretty, but it works. I’m still capturing memories.

Beautiful beach day. Got a little hot at one point Beautiful beach day. Got a little hot at one point and the water was too cold for me to get in but just kept dipping my feet in the water to cool down. Unfortunately I got a terrible headache in the afternoon so had to cut the trip a little short. Next time I need to remember to bring medicine. Not sure what’s been going on lately but the last few days I have gotten headaches in the afternoon.
