a new image in my gallery (at last)

[karen donnybrook]

I have put a new image in my gallery of 12 Bush Orchids in the Donnybrook Area (http://www.photoshopelementsuser.com/gallery/view_img.php?id=19952). I used one of Jane's templates and then adapted it to what I wanted.

All comments and criticism welcome.

Karen :)

Karen,
That's a great set-up, and the pictures are really interesting. Because of the size limits I couldn't read the individual names too well. I really enjoyed it.

[AngelicKim]

Well done Karen. Nice to see you posting your images again. I am doing to have to look at Jane's templates again. I don't remember downloading that one.

[jojo99]

Karen, that's a great picture, very striking.
What a lovely way to show off each individual picture.
Did you download the template from the web?

[lindajay]

Hi Karen, that's really a very lovely layout, and the photography is so sharp and vivid.

Kim,

Jane's template was actually only one film strip and two circles. I deleted the circles and duplicated the film strip :D. Pleased you like it.

Karen :)

Jo-Jo,

Glad you like my orchids. The template came from another forum member Jane (WAGS374).

Linda,

Pleased you like it. The photos have been taken over a number of years using a variety of cameras. Some started life as coloured slides and were printed, then scanned. I have hundreds of wildflower photos :D

Karen,
That is great. Love the way you displayed them. I love flowers, not very good at growing them though.

Hi Karen,

I like what you've done with idea. Nice to see some new images.

Tom :D

[karen donnybrook]

Thanks Tom, glad you like it.

I really like your new addition very much ! You did a great job with all your photographs
I downloaded the filmstrip from Panos (the free one). Can that be curved?

Martha,

Pleased you like it. I presume the Panos film strip can be curved. You use the shear filter. Have a look at this (http://www.photoshopelementsuser.com/forum/showthread.php?t=2682) tutorial by Wendy.

Karen,that turned out nicely! You can always lure me with orchids!! My one critique is that you don't have one of my favorite Aussies, the blue Thelymitras. Don't they grow in your area?

[karen donnybrook]

Reka,

Pleased you like it. Yes the blue Thelymitras do grow here and there are dozens of different coloured Sun Orchids from white through to deep blues and yellows.

Karen :)

[hukari]

I love all the Thleymitras, but the blue ones are the best!:)

There are several Australians on the orchid newsgroup who post all of your wonderful terrestrial orchids. They make me drool...:o

Karen
Those are beautiful shots! Great job.

[BillBarber]

Nice job, Karen. Love it!

[karen donnybrook]

Nancy & Bill,

Pleased you like my orchids.

Karen :)

Karen,
how I missed this I don't know.
It is terrific!! With your knowledge of Australian flowers and Ann's of English flowers I won't label any of my flowers, not with experts around:D
Kev.

[karen donnybrook]

Thanks Kev, pleased you like it. Don't you go calling me (or Ann) an expert :) The only definition I know for expert is a drip under pressure - I might be a drip but I am not under pressure :)

Karen

[kevq]

Karen,
I stand corrected:)
How about a knowledgeable person, is that OK?
Kev:)

[karen donnybrook]

Okay Kev, I will accept that - thank you.

Karen :)
