Scanner magic

I have found a new source of art...scanners. All night I have been creating scanner art with jewelry, roses, cut out words, and of course photos. 

 

 

Pale Wall Portraits

Got bored today. It was a weird day (44 degrees!) and it made some interesting pictures. Using the Tv setting, I got some very pale pictures on a gray wall. 

And then I got some not so pale ones on P setting...

 

 

 

 

 

 

Picture Epiphany

One time at Walmart (when I was like 10) my mom and I were at the photo center and saw these girls printing out their pictures. Their pics were very different from any I had ever seen, (my mom was not exactly Annie Leibovitz) and they I was kind of mesmorized by them. Now I realize that they had layered several pictures that they had taken, but then the pics were inspiring.

I just thought I would share this precious moment.

I do love layers    :D

Baby shots

I often babysit of my boss and last time I tried to take some pics of her 4 month old son. I am in love with him. I found it very difficult to get a good shot without a flash because he is constantly moving, but the flash makes his skin look shiny. So here's what I got. These are the first pics I have ever taken of an infant.

I know that you are supposed to use soft light when photographing children, but that is a lot harder said than done.
