Travel Memories transformed into Photo Paintings


One of the many things I love about travel photography is that when I look at a photo from a trip it brings back that exact moment to me in perfect clarity, the excitement of seeing something new and beautiful…aromas wafting through the air…the breeze caressing my skin…foreign sounds creating curiosity!  Here are some of my travel memories edited with software that take me back to that moment…

  1. Sherry, this is phenomenal. Totally impressive, not to mention you’re travels. I did make note of Topaz from one of your recent posts, and it is absolutely on my wish-list! On a side note, Tonight I just read a post from a favorite ex pat in Africa, featuring among other things the Baobab Tree.http://wp.me/p5moo7-5bb should lead you to “2summers.” Is the area she talks about the same where you photographed the tree??? Just curious. M :-), Marty
