  Well they come in threes. It all started August 13th, 2008. I won tickets to see Dana Carvey at a Winery in Saratoga through a local radio station in the San Francisco Bay Area. Then I decided to put some items for sale on Craig’s List, to get money for that 90mm Tamron Macro lens I want. I sold one of the items and now I’m $300 closer to my goal. Then the third and best one of them all. I sold Peeps Pyramid. What an awesome day. August 15, 2008 My first sale on RB WOOOOOO HOOOOOO This has made my day. What a way to wake up. I even joked with my wife when I created the shot now I will finally sell something on RedBubble. Funny how things go when you put them out to the Universe. In case you are wondering who bought my work. A lovely person by the name of AmandaWitt. Thank you so much Amanda you have truly made my day. You have also proven to me that sometimes good things come from playtime. I had such fun with this shot and learned some things with Photoshop. Be sure to visit Amanda’s page she has some amazing work as well.

• From Good to Great (hopefully) using Photoshop CS2 Basics
  by Nikki Trexel

  By Nikki Trexel I was in North Carolina’s Outer Banks for ten days, a summer paradise …

  By Nikki Trexel I was in North Carolina’s Outer Banks for ten days, a summer paradise for one Midwestern girl who’s never been to the ocean. Many photos were captured, such as A Sandy Stairway to Heaven, and the ocean was lapping at our ankles and The Shadows Ascend. But this, one of the first taken at the beach, immediately stuck out to me as having potential: And so you can compare them side by side, here’s the final product. / / The first thing I did when I opened the photo was crop a little extra space off the bottom and left-hand side. This gives the photo a more balanced composition. The sand shouldn’t be the first thing the eye lands on. I also rotated it one or two degrees counter-clockwise to even out the horizon line (Image>Rotate Canvas>Arbitrary). These are very important steps and I recommend doing them first. (And if I hadn’t been trying to keep up polite conversation with the person showing me around, I might have even gotten it right when I took the photo.) Then I had a play in Curves (Ctrl+M or Image>Adjustments>Curves). This is a very powerful tool which, used appropriately and subtly, can create more “pop” and intensity in a bland photo. It can take a while to get the hang of, but for me, the best results are often obtained by creating two or three “pins” and dragging the line so it creates a kind of subtle S-curve like this: / / Here’s roughly how Curves works: the line represents darker tones towards the bottom and left, and lighter ones towards the top and right. So, for example, if you drag the top part of the line down, it’ll make the highlights darker; and if you drag it upwards, your bright spots will be ever brighter. Be very careful, though, not to blow out any highlights or over-darken the dark spaces. It’s easy to get carried away with the Curves tool and make your photo look pretty ridiculous. Next, I used the Replace Color tool (Image>Adjustments>Replace Color) to make my chairs a little brighter without oversaturating the blue sky. Here, you just use the dropper to select which color you’d like to alter, and make sure the “Fuzziness” slider on the Replace Color window is increased as much as possible without starting to apply to stuff you don’t want it to. Here it’s simple because there is only one pink and one green area in my photo. All I did was “grab” each color with the dropper, and slightly increase the saturation. (It might be a bug in my version of Photoshop, but you might have to close out the window, then open it again to start working on a new color.) Again, this is something you have to get the hang of, but after a while it becomes second nature. I also cloned out one or two swimmers in the distant water. Not much more than a dot or two of cloning was necessary – they were only large enough to be spots in my lovely blue water. The last, and most important thing, I did with this image was – I guess it’s pretty obvious – give it a nice sky. I kind of liked the simplicity of the plain blue sky in the original, but I wanted the image to be special. I was lucky enough to have a similar photo of the clouds, taken on the same beach but on another day. I chose it because the size, depth and lighting were mostly correct already. I had to slightly alter the color to make it match the “feel” of the original photo. Here is my new sky in its primitive form. My original sky is also a very simple one to replace. The only thing sticking into the sky area is my duo of beach chairs. (If it had been a more complicated horizon, I would have probably opted for a smooth blue sky.) My chosen method for this simple replacement was simply to Clone the new sky overtop of the other old one. (There are more complex and useful ways utilizing Layers but there is really no need for that now. Plus, I don’t know how to use those ways.) This method won’t work every time, so you’ll need to size up your options to see how you’re going to create your masterpiece. If the sky to be replaced is very simple, with not a lot of complications like trees or people or other things in front of it, then you are golden. Lastly, I did a little bit of final tweaking to the entire image to make everything feel right. That included a bit of dodging and burning in my clouds, a slight saturation increase overall, and a couple of tiny clone jobs to get rid of a few blades of grass apparently growing out of the ocean (courtesy of the foreground of my new sky). You’ll have to work with this on your own photo and see what looks best. Every photo is different, and every path from good to great is totally unique. Here is my final product again, which took me a little less than a half-hour from start to finish. / Rhapsody in Blue Thanks so much for reading!

  Now that Fabulous Flowers are allowing members to submit images according to type, colour, etc, I’ve picked my best images to add appropriately and accordingly . Over the appropriate period of time (2 per day), I intend to add these images and then submit to the appropriate forum. Q: Why? What makes categorising any artwork on Redbubble so important? / A: One word: Marketing. OK, let me make that a few more words: The best way to show off ALL your uploads to Redbubble is to spread them around, like a good hand in a game of poker. Show everyone how many ACE-shots you have, and maybe you’ll win a few hands. Q: But why show them all in advance, before added to the Fabulous Flowers Group? / A: Because I like to keep a clear record of all my works, because this is MY hand in this grand-game of poker. These are my current ace shots in each of the colours and criteria specified … and because I want you to have easy access. Enough with the 20-questions, go check out my collection of flowers to add to their Color-Forum ... RED ( Y ) / / Spanish Dancer ORANGE ( Y ) / / On Fire II YELLOW / / Tree of Life GREEN ( Y ) / / Stripped in Layers BLUE / / Brothers PINK ( Y ) / / Mistique PURPLE / / Purplicious BROWN / / Imminent BROWN II / / Fire Sticks BLACK / / Budding Talent WHITE / / Softly Spoken TWO COLOUR/COLOR / / Siblings CHAOS / / Wait, A Moment MINIMALISM / / Shrouded Persona (Y) = Now on Fabulous Flowers .

  Will anyone ever read this? I have my doubts. :) But I’m bored at work and I’m 100% hooked on this site. I uploaded five pictures to start out with. I have so many more that I can hardly wait to share! The Morpho ones are among my favorites. If anyone has any tips for getting the most out of RedBubble, let me know! Here’s who I am. I live in the Midwest, so the natural beauty here is of the gentle, sweeping kind: no mountains, oceans or canyons. But that’s okay, because flowers and tiny bits of nature are where I draw much of my inspiration. I believe that God made beauty so we would be drawn to him through the supernatural, inexplicable “music for the eyes” that is so plentiful all around us. As music for our ears is composed of harmony and melody and rhythm, so art for our eyes is composed of light and color and spacing. Art and music are the same, and come from the same Artist. There would be no beauty and no music if there were no Supernatural. Sometimes I hesitate to capture an image, either out of reverence for a timeless moment or out of fear that I will be under-representing something extraordinary. But the images I do capture, and minimally process, are from my soul, and I feel more alive when I look at them. It is being a part of creation, delighting in God’s abundant gifts and thanking him for the eyes to see. “Dear, if eyes were made for seeing, then beauty is its own excuse for being.” -Emerson
