This lone tree stands in the park near my house. The plain white/gray background needed some dressing up. What better chance to use my new coffee textures?!?
I picked one with the salty stars because they kind of look like snow flakes falling--or blooming trees. What can I say? I love winter!

With spring coming and the promise of gorgeous pink and white trees, I couldn't resist playing with some girly colors for a spring version :
For this version, I played with a few filters in Picassa (I know--heresy to the LightRoom crowd.)
Graduated Tint (Pink from the top down)
and Glow
This one is my favorite of the 2. A little more color, a blush to bring back Spring.
There it is!

I LOVE the look ...and I so admire you for creating those fabulous coffee textures! I favor photo "art" with textures that are obvious, and your creations are just wonderful.
Oh yes, second version much more hopeful!
What a great texture for these images. I love what you did with them.
Beautifully done. Really like the one with the pink and white . . . gorgeous.
