I'll try that!  I'm still trying to find that "perfect" tension that works! lol  

Yes, I used Photoshop to desaturate all the color except the violin!  It's one of the little tricks I've learned when editing wedding pictures.  It's easy and people love it!

Uh oh........calendar?!?!?  ........I  better start working out!!  rofl

 

I do photo editing on the side as a hobby, so if anybody has a pic they want edited or even cleared up, just let me know!  If I'm not fiddlin', I'm photo editing! cheers

 

Hey?!?  I just noticed something!  Look at the D string in my picture!  It's actually vibrating!  Come to think of it.....I know I'm playing Ragland Road in that shot!  Eyes, closed, leg up on something, leaning into the note.....yup, Ragland Road! LOL

wow, great pics. Yes, I'm listening, now.

Been really busy... so haven't had a chance to be on here like winter time...

 

Those are two awesome shots, and working out won't make a better picture. exactly

I did the same thing for my facebook profile picture, desaturate and leave color only for eyes, mouth and hair clip. I get comments like: "omg you're pale as a vampire"... have to explain what I did everytime lol.

Ha!  You don't see my ring finger from the other side!  My first joint likes to lock down tight unless I make a point to keep it loose! LOL  

 

NV, you might like my FB page for my photography!  I make a lot of creepy pics! wink

Check out the "edits" album!  devil-violin

 

You know, I did try making my pic in sepia tones, but for some reason, I liked the b&w one better!  I make my own sepia tones instead of using filters, but for some reason, whether it was the lighting or whatever, it didn't look right.  I also plan on making it into a tin type which would look really old! cheers

roflol

She's actually a very beautiful young lady from Sweden!  She found my page and contacted me.  Apparently, she wanted a creepy profile picture for Halloween to give her kid's friends a good fright.......and she ended up having to hide it from her own kids!  rofl
