Dragon Flight

I shot this image while at Myrtle Beach this summer. It was our first time visiting Myrtle Beach and we had a wonderful time. The weather was hot but it was nice to be at the beach every day. One day I was walking along the beach when I came upon this kite. It was flying high and when I followed the string to see who was flying it I found it tied to a post. The colors looked awesome against the blue sky so I thought I would share it with my followers.

Music before Photoshop

I thought I would share this image with you so that you can see what the image looked like before I took it into Photoshop and worked on it. I love it both ways but I often like to have my images look more like a work of art than just a great photo. I wanted to give you a chance to see what I started with as well as the end result which I submited in my last post.

Music after Photoshop

It has been a while since I have posted anything to my blog. I apologize for this and I hope to get back to posting things on a more consistent basis. This image is one I made of my 3 girls standing in a field playing music. I wanted it to look more like a painting or color drawing than a photograph so I took it into photoshop and this is what I ended up with. I am very pleased with the result, I hope you like it to.

Does anybody know what this guy is?

Thanks Earl for identifying this guy.

According to what Earl found this is an Assassin Bug, that may explain why he was behind me when we found him. I think he was sizing me up for the kill.

We found this gut the other day and at first sight we thought it was a spider. Upon closer inspection we realized it only had 6 legs not 8. I have never seen a bug like this before that day so I decided to bring him home to get some pictures of him. My wife was not happy but she was just as interested as I was. She just didn't want me to bring him home. I didn't have my macro lens so I didn't have a choice if I wanted to get a good close photo so I found cup and a Kleenex tissue and a hair band and brought him home. Long story short I got this photo and was hoping that someone might know what kind of bug it is. If anyone knows I would love to hear from you.

Blue Tailed Skink

I am not sure what this guy is really called but I do know that he or she is a Skink. I call it a blue tailed skink for obvious reasons but I don't remember what it actually is. If anyone knows please let me know. I found this guy at the same castle where I saw the dragonfly. Unfortunately he is not eating any bugs or anything exciting, I hope you are not too disappointed Earl. Lunch hour must have been over or maybe the dragonfly was diner and I scarred it away, oops!

Sorry Todd, still no pictures of the castle of the campground but maybe you will find your way there yourself. They use the castle for weddings maybe you should check it out. Matter of fact they were setting up for a wedding while we were there. Really cool location for a wedding the two teenage girls I was with both said that is where they want to get married. I guess it is very romantic. If you look at the dragonfly post there are links to the website for the state parks that show some pictures of the parks but they do not do the parks justice.
