Artsy Fartsy Friday 15: A Bridge to Cross

We are on our way to Brunswick, Maine, so this photo I took in Idaho Falls last September seemed appropriate for this Artsy Fartsy Friday as we metaphorically cross a bridge to our new life on the coast of Maine! I’ll see you there!

I find that I have been missing my creative side. It’s been so long since I have painted or drawn a picture or even doodled around. While processing some photos this last week I discovered that I could turn some bad photos into some creative works of art or graphic design just by playing with the contrast, brightness and color. This led me to wanting to share these “works of art” so I decided I would display them on Fridays, at least for awhile, and call it Artsy Fartsy Fridays! I won’t say much, just let the pictures speak for themselves. I hope you enjoy it, because I am having fun!
