conceived in grandawn’s eccentric brain
I love to write, and I love to take pictures. The Cotton Wife introduced me to a free photo editor in a discussion thread for a photo contest hosted by Pioneer Woman, and I’ve been playing around with it. It’s called Photoscape.
One thing I’ve had fun with is the Object area where I can add things to my photos. Playing with this section led me to an idea to combine writing and pictures – photo cartoons, if you will – ta da! I’ll be posting them periodically.
I call them FunFauxFoto©.
Fun – well – because I think they’re fun, and I hope you will think so too.
Faux – because I’m definitely not a professional photographer, these are modified photos, and they’re actually more cartoons than official photographs.
Foto – I want it to start with an “F” to go with Fun and Faux – so I changed the spelling – like I alter the photographs.
So. . . here is my first FunFauxFoto©.
I hope you enjoy!

I think this is a very good idea. 🙂
Take a look at Picnik too.

It is a free online editor.
Photo in Afrikaans is Foto
Take care.

I’m glad you like my idea. Thank you! And thanks for the link. I’ll check that out.

I did a post about Picnic on another Blog which might interest you.

Thanks for this link, too. I’ll take a look.
That’s great… I’m going to do it as well – I have a lot of pictures that I can seriously have great fun with…. thanks!
Have fun, fun, fun!
I came over for a visit and no new post…sulk!
Awwwwww, granny. How lovely for you to say you were looking for a new post! Thank you. I usually post Monday through Friday.
That is a very clever idea!
Thank you, colonialist! No pun for me this time? 🙂
What a brilliant idea! I’ve been using Photoscape to add borders to photo’s but haven’t really explored everything.
Love the blue hair though 🙂
Thanks, halfpint! I’m so glad you like my idea. I think dolly has the best blue hair I’ve ever seen. 🙂
That is such a lovely idea. I wouldn’t mind using it for illustrations GD!
I’m so glad you like my idea, adeeyoyo! Thank you!
I think you got up too early this morning Grandawn.lol!!!!
I will make sure I wear my glasses when I start colouring my hair one day.
HeeHeeHee – I get up too early every morning! Yes – you don’t want to end up with blue hair.
rotflmao! Very clever.
Thank you, my dear! I’m so glad you like my new “baby”!
