TT – In Stillness

March 31, 2015 by Kim

Texture Tuesday Evolution

Texture Tuesday has always been about sharing your artful textured photos…..

Personally, my workflow has changed a lot since Texture Tuesday began…
I now use Lightroom for 90% plus of my processing.
I know this is the same for many of you as well.
Texture can come in many forms…. from the subject, the surface, the backdrop……the processing…..
Many of my LR presets enhance the texture within the frame….and often there’s no need for additional layers.

And so…. moving forward…..
I invite you to share your images layered with my textures, and/or processed with my Lightroom presets….
Keeping the theme …. texture in mind…..

Please Share the TT button on your blog…… xo

kk-still preset and waterfront 14

Hello lovelies….

How are you?

Here we are…the last day of March! Amazing…isn’t it…..?

Just a quick post today……

These lovely dried peonies from Aeleen called to me as I walked past them today…..
They are so beautiful…. in the best of wabi-sabi ways…..
Their gentle sway ….. takes my breath away.

I placed my Grandmother’s linen cloth on a table right in front of our north room window….it was late afternoon….
Click……

Today’s Photo Recipe

Into Lightroom for a little preset play….
I used a new preset called kk_still… coming to The Studio later today….. love the magic it made…..
Almost a bit melancholy……

For the second version, I moved into PS and added a layer of kk_waterfront 14 at multiply blend mode…. 78% opacity.
I added a hue/saturation layer, clipped it to the texture layer to remove the saturation from just the texture. It was too yellow.
Finally, I masked the texture off the peony…..

Waterfront 14

Listers…. Please watch your email later today for the texture download (including a brand new texture called matte).

    Kim- that last shot! I absolutely am in love with the colors of it. I feel like the longer I look at it, the more I see in the shot.

not to be all about Ben but I’ve had so many pe not to be all about Ben but

I’ve had so many people asking for an update on Benny. I thought I better do a post. ♡
first thank you all.
.
so we went for his limp but it ended up a little more complicated than that.
.
He has a heart murmur that the vet is quite concerned about.
the first 15 minutes of the phone call (because you can’t go into the vet) was about his little heart.
then she continued to say he has a torn ACL and because of the heart they can not do surgery.
so 6 weeks of bedrest with the hopes he will form some scar tissue and be ok to walk again but with a limp. 
they are doing an echocardiogram on Tuesday to decide what to do next for the heart. He’s not symptomatic so we would not have known if we didn’t go for his leg.
.
.
which leads me to this…
the food we’ve had Ben on up until last year - is grain free - and it has been linked to the cause of the murmur.
last summer the vet suggested we take him off it because of the study linking it, so we switched then.
I can’t believe the food we choose because of the ‘quality’ is the cause.
and I can’t believe it’s still on the shelves.
.
if you’re curious about the study you can find the details with a quick google search.I also linked it in my stories. 
.
And please share this with your pet owning friends as well. 🙏🏻
.
.
thank you for all the love & support about our Benny.  so many beautiful comments and DMS. Grateful.
.
He’s taking it all like a trooper…other than when we go out for the loo he wags his tail and wiggles about thinking finally she’s taking me for our walk. 
straight to the heart.
.
the LOVE is deep my friends.
as I know many of you get.

friends. this beautiful boy needs your prayers an friends.

this beautiful boy needs your prayers and lotsa good thoughts.
he’s been slowing down this past week and yesterday he started limping.
today it’s much worse.
unfortunately due to covid getting into a vet is slow.
praying they can help my boy…. he’s 11 but I need him for many more years to come.

thank you.

One clover, and a bee,
And revery.
The revery alone will do,
If bees are few.”
