Great Sadness Across This Land

June 10, 2014

This image has special impact today as  service for the three RCMP officers is being held in Moncton. The image was taken in Ft Saskatchewan at the RCMP Annual Ball.  Before the evening begins a member of the RCMP walks slowly across the silent room and places a hat on the empty table. Beside the table sits an empty pair of boots and the chair is tipped.  A single place setting and rose decorate the table. Artwork for this image was done with Corel Painter and includes removing the bar with all the bottles from the background.

We took advantage of a clear night yesterday ( Jan 20,2014) to try some night sky pictures.  Four large freighters anchored in the harbour made it difficult but added some unusual light.

Finding New Backgrounds

October 15, 2012
by carartlog
Daphne took a picture in an old abandoned church today on her way home from a Professional Photographer’s meeting.  Art combined this with a studio image to get this interesting effect.     Somehow an old book fit the background just right. This background is similar to what will be used for our upcoming child portrait charity event. Click on the Major Events tab on the left for more information.
