Clouds. Yes there were rather a lot of them in Auckland today. We braved the wind and the drizzle and headed out to the waterfront to take a shot with a balloon. I have this little obsession with balloons at the moment (see post below) so I have been hankering to take a shot like this for a while. And Sophia just happened to be given this balloon at Pumpkin Patch yesterday. Pwarfect!
Here are a few of the other shots we took. Featuring pinwheels and umbrellas. Two of my other loves. :)
I'm going to make a confession now. Today was not really the sort of day for shooting clouds. You know, the usual fluffy white ones on a blue backdrop. It was a very overcast day and in all the photos I took the sky was whiteout. So I was a bit sneaky and found a picture I had taken in the Summer with blue sky and clouds and I photoshopped the two together. Here is the original followed by the finished photo:
Haha! Ahh, the wonders of Photoshop! Can't wait to do some visiting now and check out some of the other participant's pics...
See you tomorrow with 'Something Green'.
