Ireland
Hello all,
I’m looking to my RB friends for a little help. My daughter, niece and cousin are all going to Ireland in March and we’re looking for any hints or suggestions.
They really want to experience the culture, get to know the people, in the short time they have there.
They’ve been told that one of the best places to go to do that is the pubs. Lots of stories and good food.…

Help, please!
I’m trying to figure out how to get higher resolution images. I think where I may be making my mistake is when I export my pics out of Lightroom. There’s a spot where you can choose how many pixels per inch, right now I have it set at 720. Does anyone know how high that can be set? or how you determine what number to put in there?
I take all of my pics in RAW format and upload them …
Refining Taking Place!
In more ways than one! Not only are my photography skills being refined but I just went thru all my RB artwork and refined 28 pages down to 16!!!
It was fun to see how much my photography has changed from the time I started RB until now! Some of my work was downright embarrassing to have on here! I’ll wait a while and probably go thru everything again and delete even more!
I figured I bette…
WOW!!! First SALE!!!
I didn’t think it would happen! A sale? I have always enjoyed, here on RB, the camaraderie of fellow artists, getting feedback and enjoying other people’s work! A sale? That would be quite the day!!! Well, that day has arrived!!! I woke up and checked my e-mail – “You’ve made a sale on RedBubble!” was in one of the subject lines!!! What a glorious way to start…
Lightroom Plug-Ins
I love Lightroom! It is my favorite photo-editing program! I also love playing around with the presets and plug-ins so I was wondering…
If you use Lightroom What is your favorite Lightroom Plug-in or Preset, maybe one that you have added to the program?
Some of mine:
Matt Koslowski has some wonderful ones including his “summer haze” and “vintage New York”.
Some of my f…

The Power of Prayer
Maybe I should title this – The Power of God – because truly, it is only by His power that little Asher is as healthy as he is today. Yet, God gives us the privilege of being able to pray, to communicate with Him, to ask, to plead, to thank, and to praise. He doesn’t need us. He did not need our prayers to heal Asher, yet how totally awesome is it that He leads us to pray for he…
Merry Christmas, RB friends!!
I know I have been absent lately but I haven’t stopped thinking about you all; I’m anxiously trying to get the necessary stuff done around here at home so I can become active here again!
The good news is that much of my time has been spent taking pics! :-) I’ve been taking pics for friends, which has taken up quite a bit of my time, getting them ready for everyone by Christmas.

Portrait, Lighting Dilemma
I’m looking for help again! Yesterday, I took some portrait shots for a family with two little children, ages 1 & 3. There was no getting them to sit still so I generally followed them around while they played in the leaves. It was a little after 4 pm. and the day was pretty grungy and dark. When I returned home and was able to look at the pics, I was a bit disappointed. Too many blurr…
