I’ve got that Happy song by Pharrell Williams going through my head (it was in my Facebook feed this morning)- a great way to start the day! If you know it, sing (clap!) along as you look at these two photos from our walk at Willow Lake earlier in the week. I know that going on this walk certainly made me happy, as did remembering how to add a frame on each photo!
I used two of Kim Klassen’s textures in both: bien and daisy.

Wonderful images. Love the simplicity of subject and tones.
I soooooo love these. Worthy of a wall for sure!
These are so lovely, Melinda !
Beautiful captures and texture work … wonderful tones too !
Wishing you a nice weekend,
Sylvia
I like the second one the best , but both are nice……………..
Gorgeous shots. Now that I can clearly see the bird, I know it is a white shouldered (black tailed) kite. They are the white birds you’ll see kiting over a field watching for prey.
Oh, these images would make beautiful gallery wraps – lots of texture and warmth – what a lovely way to decorate a room in your home! The soft, organic colors are my favorites – and nature and birds – the perfect subjects.
Lovely photos! The textures are wonderful!
Have a Happy weekend!
looks like you had a very happy walk indeed! love your photos and processing…nice!
