The hubby and I took the dog for a walk yesterday, one because she needed the exercise (lazy dog), and two because I wanted to take some pictures. There is an empty field behind our development that is owned by the University of Illinois. They are doing some sort of prairie project, so it is currently filled with wild flowers. You can't go inside, but there is plenty of pretty flowers to see from the road.
In these shots I used a set of free actions I got from Mulletgod. The first one uses the vintage yellow action with the pencil sharpen action. The last two use the vintage white action with the pencil sharpen action. I created a duplicate layer for each and then toned down each action to about 75%.
For more sky shots head on over to the SkyWatch site.

Very nice photos. I am just now getting around. For some reason my computer would not let me open up the links from the skywatch page on Friday.
Love the Queen Anne's Lace.
