Yay, I’m finished with the store! At long last. 🙂 It was a bit of work but at least now I have a place for people to purchase things. I’m laughing because I just purchased something myself off the site for my dad. He wanted my coneflower twirl, so I framed, matted it, and shipped it to him from my store. 🙂 Happy Father’s Day Dad!
Here’s an image that I reworked from an old photograph I took last year.

Congrats on being done…and on your first sale! Looks wonderful!
May 18, 2015 at 4:34 pm
Yes my first sale…from myself lol! Thank you 🙂
May 18, 2015 at 4:14 pm
Beautiful! That must feel so great. I hope you get a much deserved response at your store site. Love how you reworked this image, earthy colors and I love the layered background contrasting with the circular feel of the effect.
May 18, 2015 at 4:36 pm
Thank you Carrie! I hope so too but one never knows. Hopefully SOMEONE will want to buy something some day lol. I’m so glad you like my rework of this image with the earth colors and layered background. It kind of looks nice on the pillow actually. I might even buy one myself LOL.
May 18, 2015 at 6:16 pm
I could see that as a pillow, the shower curtain options are amazing too. Not sure if your store carries those, they are available through shutterfly, I could see this in a bathroom for sure 🙂 I am sure your work will be hanging in people’s homes in no time!
May 18, 2015 at 6:53 pm
Ohhh a shower curtain! I can see that too. Unfortunately FAA doesn’t have that. Hmm I wonder if premium membership does lol. Thanks Carrie!

May 18, 2015 at 4:36 pm
Aw thank you so much John. 🙂
May 18, 2015 at 4:25 pm
CONGRATULATIONS, Laura!! You have done a fabulous job. All your hard work has paid off 🙂 I’m sure it is a relief to be finished!
May 18, 2015 at 4:37 pm
Thank you Kirsten! It’s definitely a relief. I can rest now. 🙂
May 18, 2015 at 4:40 pm
And a well deserved rest it is! I was also wondering what the difference is between fine art photography and just plain photography? I see that both you and Leanne use that term.
May 18, 2015 at 4:44 pm
Here’s the definition of fine art photography from wiki: Fine art photography is photography created in accordance with the vision of the artist as photographer. Fine art photography stands in contrast to representational photography, such as photojournalism, which provides a documentary visual account of specific subjects and events, literally re-presenting objective reality rather than the subjective intent of the photographer; and commercial photography, the primary focus of which is to advertise products or services.
So basically it’s a photographer’s vision not just a snapshot or record of the subject. For instance if I went to the aviation museum and took snapshots of planes, that is not fine art. However, if I rework them into artful images via photoshop, that can be considered fine art.
May 18, 2015 at 4:49 pm
Ugh…I didn’t even think about wiki-ing the term :(. I like the idea of making photographs a work of art through my vision of them. I hope to work towards being more than a snapshot photographer :-). Your work always inspires me to see more than the snapshot.
May 18, 2015 at 4:50 pm
Oh no worries. I had no wiki’d it either so I learned something! I did know that definition but I wanted the “official” definition lol. Thank you for saying I inspire you! Seriously…that is the best compliment EVER! :-)))
May 18, 2015 at 4:52 pm
Great job Laura, congrats! 🙂
May 18, 2015 at 6:04 pm
Thank you! 🙂
May 18, 2015 at 7:03 pm
it shows just how much you enjoy post processing.
funny….I’ve both enjoyed PP and not enjoyed PP over the years, odd 🙂
May 18, 2015 at 7:50 pm
I’m glad it shows. I think! Interesting that you’ve gone back and forth in it.
May 18, 2015 at 9:08 pm
Congratulations!
May 19, 2015 at 9:03 am
Thank you!
May 18, 2015 at 10:34 pm
Well done Laura. And here was I thinking you were building something out of wood 🙂 My mind (which can’t remember my Facebook password, so couldn’t put a comment in your store) just boggles at your technology. The moth image is painterly.
May 18, 2015 at 10:43 pm
Clever, Laura. Where is the butterfly now? I would like to photograph it.
May 19, 2015 at 9:03 am
Thank you Tommy. 🙂 I think I”m going to do more of these types of things. It’s what I really enjoy. He has flown the coup! lol
May 20, 2015 at 1:24 am
