She whips that little car in & out of anywhere & everywhere she can! lol She did tell my husband that he had to get out because he was slowing her down too much! It was hilarious! She was right! And just for the record I didn’t do her hair, her friend did & she loved it! And yes Dave, I taught her to drive on the sidewalk! ha ha ha FEATURED in the group Collective Collage

Rural Delivery Triptych - "faux" TTV by Patrick Hickey
I have been made aware that my photographic subject matter tends to be leaning a little in the rural direction. That makes total sense living in northwest Missouri and working in southwest Iowa. It doesn’t get much more rural that that. I drive by lots of mailboxes that are abandoned or at least look like it and started taking photos of them. I put together this triptych with three of them using my Photoshoped TTV border. Colors and saturation also adjusted in Photoshop. / Canon EOS 10D / Tamron 28-200

The Green Green Grass of Home by Bonnie T. Barry
These images are of a little town called Grand Coteau in southwestern Louisiana. Known as a hub for Catholic spirituality, Grand Coteau’s history is long and rich. Pictured here are landmarks in the little rural town including the Academy of the Sacred Heart, St. Charles Borromeo Church, and St. Charles College (all established in the early 1800s), as well as the Jesuit Cemeteries, farmland scenes, and majestic oaks which are trademarks of the town.

Tabby by Tiffany Dryburgh
Triptych created from some previously uploaded images For the Collective Collage Thanksgiving Challenge: / I would have to say the thing I am most thankful for is the love of my animals. I am amazed and grateful everyday for their company, love and beauty without which my life would be completely empty. This is one of my three gorgeous babies. Her name is Mona and she is a long-haired blotched tabby. I have never had a tabby cat before and I just love her markings, hence this little study.

The Daylight by Cindirelli
The steam-powered Southern Pacific 4449, nicknamed “The Daylight,” passed through Pasco about noon today on its way home to Portland. / The train is on the last day of its 2,500-mile journey from Portland to Train Festival 2009 in Michigan. / It came through the Tri-Cities in July on its way east. The train stayed overnight Monday in Spokane and it stopped briefly in Pasco at the Amtrak station at 535 N. First Ave. today. Collage created in Picasa 3 / Otherwise straight from the camera / Sony CyberShot DSC-H7 HD1080 American Freedom Train Locomotive #4449 / Former Southern Pacific Daylight locomotive 4449 was pulled from Oaks Park in Portland, OR on December 14,1974 to begin restoration to pull the American Freedom Train. / A local rail fan named John Monterey (Jack) Holst had for years kept the locomotive’s critical parts oiled in hopes it might one day steam again. He didn’t live to see the day his efforts paid off. Jack died on August 26, 1972. He was 38. There is now a brass plaque inside the locomotive’s cab in his memory. 4449 was the locomotive of choice to pull the AFT through the west and south. The locomotive’s clean lines, large size, and pulling power (especially at speed) made it the perfect candidate for the AFT. Wile pulling the AFT its number boards on the smokebox read X4449. While pulling the Southern Steam Special in 1976 and most of the Amtrak Transcontinental Steam Excursion in 1977 the number boards read simply 4449. 4449 wore her original orange and red “Daylight” paint scheme through most of the 80’s and 90’s, and appeared this way in the 1986 Disney film ‘Tough Guys’ with Burt Lancaster, Kirk Douglas, Michael Douglas, Eli Wallach, Charles Durning, and Dana Carvey. (Doyle L.”You’re Crazy - Nobody Robs Trains Anymore” McCormack played the train engineer - as he did on the AFT.) In the late 1990s, the locomotive was painted almost completely black. After 9/11, the Daylight locomotive was repainted to American Freedom Train colors for a couple of years. The only visible difference was the silver metal stripes on the pilot. In 1975-76 the stripes had been painted-on in white. The number boards were brought forward to their AFT position. Today, the locomotive is back to its original “as delivered” orange and red Daylight paint. / The locomotive still runs in excursion service nearly every year. More information on this engine – it was built in 1941 by the Lima Locomotive Works of Lima, Ohio. It is one of 27 “GS-4” class 4-8-4 engines built for service on Southern Pacific Railroad’s “Coast Daylight” trains that ran up and down the California coast from 1941-1955. This particular engine began its career as a troop and freight train engine during WW-2. Following the war, it was used on the “Coast Daylight” run until it was retired in 1956. Specs for the engine include driver wheels 80 inches in diameter, an engine weight of 475,000 pounds, a 300 psi maximum boiler pressure, and a maximum tractive effort of 64,800 pounds (77,760 pounds with booster). Note that the “GS” designation given stood for “Golden State” (California is known as the golden state), but that title was morphed into “General Service” due to the diversion of resources (including several of these engines) towards the war effort. As they neared the end of their careers, they were relegated to considerably less glamorous roles including pulling commute trains on the San Francisco peninsula. Most of them lost their side skirts near the end of their service life, and were painted plain old basic black (except for the smoke box door which was always silver). A few of these were built during WW2, and were class GS5 and GS6. The GS5s were unique because they rode on friction bearings instead of roller bearings which were hard to get during the war, and only two were built. The GS6 was the last of the series, and a number of those were allocated to the Western Pacific Railroad. They were all built without the skirts. The 4449 is 110 feet long and 16 feet tall and doubtless the most photographed locomotive in the world, the former Southern Pacific GS-4 is the property of the City of Portland Oregon. In the 1980’s it pulled a consist of matching cars from Portland to New Orleans for the World’s Fair. It is currently under the care of the Friends of SP 4449.

About This Group
For images in a collage format – not a single image but several images of a similar topic used to create one image. No straight up off the camera shots unless it’s a flukey film shot with 2 images in one. These should be mainly photographic in nature with minimal text. Collages are usually created in a photo editing program such as photoshop or paintshop pro.
PHOTOS ARE NOT MERGED TO CREATE ONE NEW IMAGE THEY ARE SEVERAL IMAGES IN A TOPIC SET OUT TO CREATE A COLLAGE.
THE IMAGES WITHIN THE FINAL COLLAGE ARE INDEPENDENT OF EACH OTHER.
SET OUT IN A GROUP OF 2, 3 OR MORE… as a montage or triptych.
Check out the images in the first few pages of the group to see if your pics fit in with what we are trying to achieve.
**
Collages need to be created using a minimum of 2 separate photographs.
Example!
If you have collages made using traditional art mediums try checking out the altered art group.
