Cattitude Monday - May 13, 2013 - Introducing Helix

Hello and Happy Monday! - If you are popping by for Scavenger Hunt Sunday please click on the link for my entry.

Today I'm sharing some photo's of another one of the neighborhood kitties.  This one belongs to the same family that own Fluffy (the new mama kitty) that I showed on SHS.  His name is Helix.  He's a shy sort of cat and at times it's very hard to get pictures of him.  I managed to snap a few one day that I liked before he got tired of the clicking of the camera and ran off.  Funny thing was unbeknownst to me one of the people we attend church with was driving by and happened to see me laying out in the yard snapping photo's of the cat.  He made a comment about it on Sunday.  You just never know who's watching you!

Relaxing on my mom's porch after his morning breakfast.

He headed for our front sidewalk and I caught a few poses before he headed off across the street.  This next one is my favorite:

"Hey lady will you put that darn camera away!"

Photo Art Friday - March 15, 2013

Welcome to Photo Art Friday ! - Here you will find many wonderful pieces of photo art.  Bonnie offered up the "optional" theme of Portrait this week. 

Here are my contributions:  These 1st two pieces are photo portraits of our neighbors cat, Helix.  For this one I used a great texture that I found here:  Lenebem-Anna has lots of very cool looking (Free) textures you can use for your photos. I added the photo frame in Pic Monkey.

Same kitty,  different look and texture:

This one uses a Kim Klassen texture called, Organic.  You can find it here:

Finally a piece that I played around with (a lot).  Do you think it's a bit much?

I started with a photo of Coleen and the Clown at the Kid's Rodeo that the communtiy college put on last week.  Then I added Bonnie's texture: Vintage Vellum and then a layer of a Weave texture from Pic Monkey that resembled Denim jeans.  I added a frame that I found and inverted the color to white and then erased out areas over their faces etc... to get the end result.
