Proj. 365: Rainy Summer Days

PROJECT 365: Rainy Day
April 22 (WEDNESDAY) Day-112

It was rainy the whole day that it is hard to take pictures outside. When the rain suddenly stopped, I asked my niece Kathleen to pose for me with the umbrella. We had fun with this shoot. She actually loved many shots that I did and told me she's going to put it on her Friendster acct. hehe

I am fortunate that I have many "models" that I can take photos of. FYI, Kath lobes to eat too much but she was lucky that she is not gaining so much weight that she don't need to have Apidexin to take.

WW: innocence2
WW:innocence
This is my niece Reign, she always sees me holding my camera bec. she knows I always take photos each day. One day she asked me to take photo of her with the straw hat that was just lying around our place. She was posing for me quite good for few minutes but later on she is already complaining. I thought she was tired and bored bec. I asked her to be still but she said that the straw hat makes her itchy. I laughed to hard to my hearts delight.. Cheeky girl..

Anyway, I am excited with the photoshoot opp tomorrow at Aliwan Fiesta at CCP grounds cuz I will be meeting new online friends who are also photo hobbyists.

Welcome to our garden

LP: Hardin
This is my entry for Litratong Pinoy the other week for my main blog and our theme was about GARDENS. This is our small garden with gazebo just right at the back of my store and infront of my brother's house. This maybe small but it is so refreshing to stay here esp. in the afternoons where the wind is blowing. It is a good place to rest, read books and to talk to friends and relatives. Actually it feels like you are camping for a while in our own neighborhood. We really don't even need to have rv camping gears to enjoy nature.

PROJECT 365: Hottest Day!!!!

PROJECT 365: Hottest Day!!!!
Oh my gosh, i think this is is the hottest day (YET) that i have experienced this year. It was really scorching hot.. humid sticky.. sweaty!!! Argghhh .... i think it was around 30-34C or more. that day esp. in the mid afternoon.

We need to drink lotsa water to replenish our lost liquids in our body. With this kind of weather we are also careful about the skin care products that we are using since we sweat a lot and my skin is also sensitive to harsh chemicals.

How to Remove Unwanted Background/ elements/ random person in Photos using CLONE STAMP tool Tutorial

I've always wanted to do this but got no time but the other day I was able to tinker with my PSCS3 and I am glad with the result.

Here is the photo I took when I was in vacation in Australia in 2008. Love this photo but take a look at the couple at the left side and that is my niece on the right side. I want them out of the photo and just leave our tent there.

I just used the CLONE STAMP tool to remove them and here is the result. Try it yourself!

Proj. 365: Water Fun!!

Water Fun!
Ohh my eyes!
Havin' Fun
It's summer time over here and that means it's school holidays for the kids till 1st week of June. It was scorching hot most of the times and is it unbearable. Kids are often restless and want to do everything from playing computer games and other activities. They need to be occupied.

One time my nephews and niece decided to play and took a bath using the water hose bec. it was so hot that day. I don't think we'll go swim in the beach or go out of town so they just got contented with this. They had so much fun actually, even they are just in our backyard.
