When I think spring I think birds and flowers. What do you think of?

I like to fool around with adding animation to part of my photos like these by cutting and “filling” other pictures or color combos and then animating only part of the picture. Gives eerie effects depending on light, shadows, color, etc. Hope you get some ideas for your software. I am happy to answer any questions as to how they were created as well as planning many “how-to” posts way overdue.

I have only one real vice and that is ice cream. My favorite is Moosetracks by almost anyone or Michigan Deer Traxx and Caramel Deer Traxx by Hudsonville in Michigan. The habit I have developed over the years is eating it after bedtime. I will wake up an hour our two after going to bed and get myself a small bowl which is quite insane since I have already brushed and flossed and even though I rinse with water afterwards, I can just imagine what it is doing to my teeth! Bad habit that tastes so good!

You can see part of my door wreath behind the glass with the glue stains from the city warning me about the leaf bags I left in front of my house. Nazis!

I have been obsessively starting my days for the last few years with coffee. I had quit all caffeine except that which was found in chocolate for many years because I didn’t need it. I had always loved a good cup of coffee and when my son moved back home for a short time, he got me drinking it again.
Created my own coffee T-shirt a few months ago by transferring one of my coffee photos with the simple message “Coffee.” I printed the word coffee in Vladimir script in reverse so I could go over it with a transfer pen and iron on. I then went over the lettering with fabric markers.
