Mindlovesmisery's Menagerie - Photo Challenge #78This was the photo prompt:
Also joining : s~A(R)T~urday
In her
mind she saw the world through colored filters allowing her to be creative
without being judged by those whose vision wasn’t the same as hers.
She
breathed a sigh of relief and looked in wonder at what was before her. It was Magical, moving, breathing; giving hope
to those in need.
For those interested the above piece was created with a composite of the 3 photos below. - I edited the Photo on Pic Monkey to clone out all the people and such in the first photo. Layered the Dragonfly and went to Be Funky to do some editing. Back to Pic Monkey where I added a cropped version of Coleen blowing snow and did some final edits.
I like both your creation and your writing. you already know i am addicted to creating in pic-monkey..
ReplyDeleteVery well done!
ReplyDeleteI loved the last paragraph.
ReplyDeletevery nice!! It's amazing how you can create something new and different from various images. I love playing around with my images too.
ReplyDeleteand you did a good job on the writing - I could relate to it quite a bit.
I like your photo and writing very much. I did not know PicMonkey let you clone out people...
ReplyDeleteWhat an interesting meme. First your picture. It's totally fascinating and looks like something you would see in an art gallery. I love it. As for your writing, I think you should do more of it because you don't give yourself enough credit. You do very well as a writer.
ReplyDeleteIda, that's lovely: both the photos, the composite photo and your written interpretation. Your words are very touching, as they are clearly heart-felt. You've hit on a raw nerve for a lot of writers: that self-conscious fear of being ridiculed because others don't share your vision, and you've expressed it beautifully. All the best, Bonny
ReplyDeleteWow Ida, these are gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteGreat Effort,I'd say!
ReplyDeleteWhat a super piece! Love the vibrant colours!
ReplyDeleteI read the post and studied your art. Honestly, I had to go for a walk to find my thoughts. It confused me, because at first I saw a cross in the hand sculpture and developed a religious feeling from the work. I was honestly thinking pilgrimage. Then I scrolled down further and saw the photos you used and after seeing it was a dragonfly my entire perception changed. It made me think of moments I have been outdoors and nature unexpectedly becomes silent, and something, like an insect, suddenly takes on a spiritual persona.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, I think you are very brave for doing challenges like this. I wouldn't know where to start and I also have reservations about people's judgements and criticisms. Have you ever been hurt by a comment? Or perhaps just bored with too much kindness and not enough honesty?
Oh, and thank-you for always stopping by my blog for a visit. I appreciate your loyalty.
Hugs,
Andrea
You know I am not a writer either, but I think you did a great job. Also like your mash-up of images, very creative.
ReplyDeleteThanks for linking these @ s~A(R)T~urday
I think this is wonderful. The photo art, the words. Both get an A++ in my book!
ReplyDeleteYou are amazing that you would see this in those three pictures. THAT is ART! Your writing is beautiful, too, Ida. A lot said in a few brief lines.
ReplyDeleteExcellent, quite intriguing!
ReplyDeleteI like your artwork and the writing was a perfect accompaniment.
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting my little mystery about Detective BeeBee at my WP place.
It is interesting how many different names there are for fireflies, glowworms is just one of many.

Though I once saw a luna butterfly caterpillar that was neon green almost glowing.
Cheers, Jules
I love this, and I love the way you interpreted it. You did not lead, but were careful to leave it to the beholder. Excellent.
