Imagine the Possibilities

As New Year's Day approached and then quickly passed, I pondered the typical rationale of a resolution to achieve one or more specific goals for the year and made a decision to take a different approach.

res-o-lu-tion [rez-uh-loo-sh uh n] a resolve or determination: to make a firm resolution to do something.

Every week, I will challenge myself to do one or more of the following:

- Explore a 'new place'. Places can be anything from a new restuarant to a new spot for a photo-shot, or a new city, state or country.

- Meet 'new people' and make 'new friends'. People are what, I mean who, make the world go round. What makes them tick? What can I learn from them, and how can our friendship enrich both of our lives?

- Try, join or start a 'new activity'. Activities can be anything from trying your hand at a new physical sport, volunteering, joining a club or creating a website. The possibilities are endless.

- Learn 'something new'. Go deeper into topics you are already know or broader with new topics to expand your horizons.

Week Two 2011

There's been many photos this week to choose from, but this one has to be my 'Favorite Photo of the Week'. Snow began falling on Sunday evening here in the ATL, and we woke Monday to a winter wonderland. This picture was taken on Tuesday afternoon in back of our house. Such a small lake, manmade at that, with a large dose of beauty. If you look closely, you can see the kids old and young alike having fun in the snow.


And what, you may ask, have I done 'new' this week? I am so excited to have learned a few new functions in Photoshop CS5. To those of you who know this program, it may not seem like a big deal. To those of you who don't know Photoshop, let me amaze you with these magic tricks!
  • Content Aware - lets me (OK, and others too) remove cymbals from in front of Jonathan's bass and telephone wires from in front of a building. Whoa!
  • Smart Objects - keep their original resolution/pixels. I just hate when I lose them, and this will help prevent that.
  • Puppet Warp - sounds kewl, huh? This one will let you curl the trunk on an elephant and take the muffin top off of your jeans.
Excuse me while I go to my Photoshop Playground......
