BOOM!

After the heat come the storms!  A half-second later and this photo would never have happened, as the sky had darkened suddenly and unexpectedly, thunder struck loudly to be followed by lightning and as the lightning sparked June had already made her own "lightning speed dash" to hide in the closet!  

We chose this picture to alter for CATURDAY ART and for SATURDAY'S CRITTERS, thinking it might be fun to see if it could be reworked, as always with Adobe Creative Cloud tools, to be even more ominous and threatening than the original. So many tools were used on the original photo and in creating the background and multiple layers that I'm not able to share the process today ... suffice it to say there were just a lot, a whole lot of them!  BOOM!

  2. Forgot to ask, is it okay to add to my folder of favourite photos, just for personal viewing?

  3. We had storms here, too...from Thursday night through Friday afternoon. Boom is right!! Hope your hiding spot was safe, June...and that now you are out and about once again.

  6. The art is wonderful! We had a doozy last weekend, woke me up. Storms never seemed to bother my angels, but I'd be the one freaking out!
