Texture Tuesday - People

This weeks theme at the Kim Klassen Cafe is People.

I was trying to use the light from the small window in our bathroom when taking this picture of my daughter.

The texture used was Yesteryear, Blend mode - Multiply, Opacity - 59%. I used a soft round brush to remove texture from the face.

Weeds are flowers too ......

I was weeding in the garden yesterday, when I came across one with a pretty little flower.



So I thought I'd take a closer look .......




....... and this is what I found.

Texture Tuesday - The Free and Easy eDition

One of my favourite flowers in the garden (apart from Roses) would have to be Camellias.

My favourite Camellia is called 'Star Above Star'.

For each of the Star Above Star photographs below I have used Kim's new texture 'Mayzee'. I experimented with some different blend modes and opacities.





Soft Light - 100%




Overlay - 20%



Screen - 31%
I removed some texture over the flower using a soft, round, eraser brush set at 10% opacity.



Overlay - 20%

I don't know the name of this plant but the flowers are quite pretty.
