Phonography & Sharing May

Welcome to this week's Phonography link up, round #37!  Hope your week was a good one.  Oddly, I didn't do much shooting with my phone this week.  Should I feel ashamed that I let my phone die on two different days??  That's very unlike me.  I guess without the use of the Internet for a few days I decided to shut off from technology for a bit and take a little break from feeling plugged in.  Although it was a really nice feeling once I accepted it I have to admit that I feel a little behind the times in some areas of my life.  But feeling good nonetheless.  This shot above is another one of the spot I mentioned yesterday, a wedding site a friend of mine picked.  It really is one of the prettiest places I have been to in the Smokies and so perfect for her.  The relaxed atmosphere, the barn, the large, vast layout of the land all with a view of the Smokies...it really is so fitting for them.  So, Phonography- join in!  You can use the linky below and link up to your post with a hyperlink or the button.  Should you like to know more just click on the Phonography page.  I really look forward to seeing where life has taken you this week.  This link will be open until midnight Friday (EST).  Happy Tuesday!



Also, better late than never! Here is this month's calendar. It will fit right into a cd case (There are some examples of this on the Me to You page. Just click on the image and save it to your computer...free for you to use. Hope you like it!

Oh, I am also planning on showing how I made that shot some of you were curious about tomorrow so check on back if you are interested.  I did the same process for this image on the calendar.  It's actually a really big cheat but I have figured out a way, albeit much more complicated, in Photoshop to create something similar.  It's all a matter of having the right software really.  But I will show you how I made the image and some other possibilities the software can offer.  Until then...

This is beautiful! Perfect wedding spot! Nice to be unplugged every once in a while, isn't it?!

This is a gorgeous area. I can’t wait for our Tennessee vacation next month. Hopefully it’s this pleasant when we get there!

Anika - I think I am more excited about seeing your photographs of the event than experiencing the event itself (shhh, don't tell anyone.) These photos are GORGEOUS, and I am so honored to have you documenting the day for us. It's going to be awesome.
