Photoshop Fun

So Rich showed me the other day that we have Photoshop on our computer! I still have no idea how to use anything but I did figure out how to make tilt-shift and fish-eye photos. (You can see examples of what a Tilt-Shift and a Fish-Eye lens do on cameras by clicking on each) With tilt-shift, you make ordinary pictures become like models of actual things. Here are some of the pictures I came up with!




This is a picture out the window from Adam's place. I think it looks like Mr. Rogers land of Make Believe :)






This is from Tim and Joann's house. It didn't turn out as well as the one from Adam's house , but it was still fun!







This was when Rich was up in Port Angeles, Washington.







I haven't really made any fish-eye pictures yet, but that is when your pictures look like they were taking looking through a fish's eye. 

So that's been my fun recently. Not much else is up. I'll be sure to update when something exciting comes up!

Moving Time!

At the end of April and the beginning of May, we moved into our new little home. It's so wonderful to have a little bit more room and finally have a garage, yard and garden!! Here is the process of going from the old apartment to the new little house!





Painting over the brown walls (how I miss my brown walls)...











...and Rich painting over my many mistakes






















In the midst of all the packing I thought I would use up some of the ingredients in the fridge and came up with cheesecake!


  




Boxes going in to the new place!








The kitchen slowly coming together









The dining room and living room from the kitchen doorway













The "hallway" and bedroom from the living room








The extra bedroom and is much more cluttered now :)











Our little bedroom










Our house with the keys!!












Our little garden...








...Suddenly became a very large garden. It's even larger now and I'm eating tomatoes and blueberries daily!






You will have to wait for pictures of our current garden in a post yet to come!

So that is our new home in a nutshell. Hope you enjoyed to pictures as much as I enjoyed posting them (and figuring out how to get my blog working properly again!).
