City Daily Photo & Live Every Moment - Independence Day at Stout Farms

I love a blue sky, but the top 2 pics just needed something...

Can't remember where I got the texture in the 1st pic,
but on the 2nd image I used Shadowhouse Creations 'We The People' texture.
mouse over both to see originals



Happy Independence Day United States of America!
235 years!

The windmill and old glory are "favorites" when it comes to adding interesting things to picture. I like the miniature windmill too. A very good post.

hey, new header image - nice! I'm not usually a huge fan of textures but you're changing, or perhaps opening would be a better word - my mind about them. I did mouse over and the difference is AMAZING. I love it what you've done here with these images. I suspect I just don't know what to do with them, so it's time to explore. you inspire me. happy Independence day!
