  • Godrevy Island SC by Anthony Hedger

    I wanted to change the original shot of this one into a selective colouring shot. I feel it works how about you guys what do you think? The selective colouring was made in Photoshop Elements 6 I hope you like the shot and thank you for viewing my work. The following text I found on the internet Godrevy lighthouse stands guard over The Stones, a reef stretching offshore of Cornwall for one and a half miles. The Stones had wrecked The Nile, a passenger steamer, in December 1854, with the loss of all hands. After much debate as to whether to build a lighthouse on the reef or on the island, work started on construction of a light on the island in 1858, with the light first operating in March 1859. The lighthouse is a white octagonal tower, 86 feet high, made of rubble stone, bedded in mortar. The original light was a revolving white one, with a fixed red below the main light, which could be seen over a 44 degree arc when a ship was in danger of the reef. The red sector is now covered by a red sector in the main light itself. In addition a fog bell sounds every five seconds At first the light was manned by two men at a time, but problems with the relief, led to this being increased to 3 in 1925, but by 1934 the lighthouse was made automatic and ceased to be manned and is now maintained by helicopter visits The fog signal has now been discontinued, and the light flashes white/red every 10 seconds, with the red sector only being visible in the arc of danger from the reef. The range of the light is 12 miles / Godrevy Island has been the site of many shipwrecks. The most famous being after Charles I’s execution ship carrying much of his property was wrecked here, and the royal belongings scattered along the coast. Artifacts from SS Kintuck, sunk 1917, are at the Shipwreck Museum in Charlestown . Not far from the remains of the Mohegan are those of the Spyridion Vagliano, a 1708-ton steamer, laden with grain from the Black Sea for Falmouth, hit the Voices in the dark on 8 February, 1890, ripped a hole in her 258ft-long hull, and then bounced off to the north. Her crew abandoned her at once. Her captain was drowned when his boat overturned at midnight on Godrevy Cove beach.

  • TIMELESS by sharont

    Most of us are time watchers. My husband has his own business … engine repair. It is dirty and greasy work as you can see by his hands. I went to his shop and saw him standing with his hands behind his back in contemplation. I snapped this photo (I always have a camera). I saw he had his gold watch on and told him that was not a good thing (to wear his good watch). The photo was taken at 9 a.m. ... notice the time. His battery had died so he was without the correct time anyway. I thought the photo was timeless and Al was also timeless. I used Digital Image pro to select the watch and leave it gold while the rest is black and white. Canon PowerShot SD850 IS Digital ELPH Digital

  • You're HOW Old Now?? by Dayonda

    Wooly bugs his eyes as he asks you to repeat your age for him. / Of course, in cat years, you’re probably so ancient he doesn’t believe you could still be alive, hence his stunned expression. RESCUE Wooly was a rescue from a yard sale. He was free. His birth family has died of neglect- but for the last surviving birth family member, the vet scolded me for Wooly’s being obese. Wooly gave him the same look, as in “WHO are you calling OBESE?” Wooly and I were a majority, so we stalked out of the doc’s office in high dudgeon together.

  • LOST by tigerwings

    Photo Of My Daughter / Done in Selective Coloring and then Treatment used. / Kodak C763 Alone / By: Edgar Allan Poe / / From childhood’s hour I have not been / As others were; I have not seen / As others saw; I could not bring / My passions from a common spring. / From the same source I have not taken / My sorrow; I could not awaken / My heart to joy at the same tone; / And all I loved, I loved alone. Then- in my childhood, in the dawn / Of a most stormy life- was drawn / From every depth of good and ill / The mystery which binds me still; / From the torrent, or the fountain, / From the red cliff of the mountain, / From the sun that round me rolled / In its autumn tint of gold, / From the lightning in the sky / As it passed me flying by, / From the thunder and the storm, / And the cloud that took the form / When the rest of Heaven was blue / Of a demon in my view. /
