Royalty Free Photographs
Jul 5^th, 2011, 10:06am

Well I can't use them all, for some odd reason if I just use photography
my brain goes to sleep Grin

well *cough* its 95% asleap most of the time,
so I decided to shove them up on my website, if anyone want's to use
feel free, no credit no asking, just do what you will with them, if they are
of any use to you, better than going to waste... I will be changing them
regular so I guess *ponders* it's a right click and save as job, they are straight
raw out of the camera so you can tweek sturation, light, and sharpen or whatever
is needed.
This is just a sort of experiment to see if anyone wants, if not no biggie

but I will switch picks now and then if it's received well Cheesy

Idea from Trishe's post

has not that long been on the danger register, it was hunted for it's baby's fluffy white fur
so badly that it almost became extinct, but thankfully due to the work on the Farne Islands
and other places in Europe, hes just recovered and is thriving, so we are still very lucky
I think to get them

and they play with you if you can dive)

They need time to load these things are humungus Cheesy

I thaught eeep the camera was playing up
but let it sit there then ping sharp.

Hugs Moonie

I will always visit your freebies should you choose to continue posting them. It's not like I don't have millions of photos, but inspiration often comes from others and I love to do digitally paintings from photos, especially animals. THANK YOU!!

You are all welcome

they cut out pretty well at times..

The bird in question is a very young spring British Robin, orange, hes to little
for display yet

odd one though, hes the dullest I have ever seen. In the USA
they are very vibrant red (Is gellous of our dim ones ) but I am sure throughout
the years they have got a lot duller than I remember the Robin Redbreast of
Childhood times.

Can't wait to see the horse Cheesy

And the purple flowers, is a rare wild Orchid it's flowers are tinny tinny it's a hand and knees
squinting through the macro lense to get them, about the size of an average little finger nail,
I adore them, but only seen purple this year
so far, off to Otterburn tomorrow to see if we can get variations of them.

Yes totally mine

both myself and the hubby are keen photographers although
I rarely use in my work, only if something hits me like my tea and cake, or
tea and chocolate. Or I want a particular bird etc. Hes a lot lot better than me
and is teaching me slowly, his macro's are blinding, mine are slow but getting there.

I am the flower person, hes the bug and bird in flight I guess we make a good team

between us. So if it's floral or keeps still that's me, if its extremely fiddly or in flight
thats him

You are both very talented photographers Moonie and I don't give away that praise with everyone. I am HUGELY picky about photography, my training I guess. I'm in update sites mode for the next 7-days or so, but then I get my 2-months of design freedom and I'll be sure to show you the horse painting!

Big hugs for your generosity of heart!
