You don’t need to be born a faerie to be a faerie, if you’re an inventive steampunk, you can make your own wings! The (currently) last image in the Goths, Faeries and Lace series, and very close to my favourite of all time!
Abstracts from Nature / This was once a brown tabby cat. Honest! Sebastian, my photo-ham kitty had me take one last pose. They were all beautiful shots, but I could only send one to RB, so I made a copy of one of them and started to play with it in Picture Publisher 5. It was okay. Then I got ahold of Pic Pub 10, and played with the effects it had to offer. Then I turned ti lime green- it looked okay, but not “finished”. The use of Light Artist did what was needed- added the brass and brown tones, and sort of aged the brightest lime color. I’d like to have a sculpture of this some day. But I suppose nobody would understand it. Now you do, though. Unravel it and it’s a cat!

Feng Shui teaches that 3 coins bound with the auspicious red ribbon is a powerful symbol that brings prosperity and abundance. For centuries the three good luck coins inside a red envelope have been given to family and friends to wish loved ones true prosperity. The act of giving the good luck coins spreads happiness and good luck to those who receive them. Tips for using these Chinese good luck symbols of wealth and prosperity -Many people keep the good luck coins in their wallets and purses encouraging wealth and prosperity. -Others hang the lucky coins from the inside of the door symbolising that prosperity has entered the house. -Business people often keep good luck coins in the cash register or tape them to the front of important files they are working on. /

Best on Full Size This little copper kettle was on an ancient wood stove, located in one of the log cabins at Old Bedford Village in Bedford, PA. One of the interesting things about this wonderful village is the buildings and accessories are authentic to their time periods. It is my understanding that the homes and barns and churches are not reproductions, but are actual, once-working structures that have been moved to Old Bedford Village . Image taken wih the Nikon D300 and the 18-200mm vr Nikon lens. Shutter speed 1/10, aperture f/13.0, exp. -.33, iso 1000. No flash, natural light. Post processing included the addition of three textures in Photoshop, a light Orton technique and dodging and burning. Textures courtesy of Princess of Shadows at Deviant Art and Ghostbones on Flickr.
The base image is a detail from an old brass and copper jardiniere (which is only 4 inches in diameter). I added a texture layer and did some painting. Photoshop Elements 3. /
