Drummer Girl

It was Sunday afternoon. With time on my hands I checked out some old photo folders with the idea of doing some re-editing. After a few trials and subsequent rejects, I landed in April 2010 where I found several photos of Danica beating her toy drum. I decided to merge them into one composite, and then I decided to ask AI to make a stage around her. After that step, I applied some filters and ended up with these two versions. Of course I like th colour version best but Blogger inserted it second. I could fiddle with that, but I won’t this time.



Jonathan was 14 months old at the time, so he wasn't barging around beating the drum. He was mobile, but not in this photo, which is also a bit of a re-edit.


And . . . just for a laugh . . . you've heard of Elf on the Shelf . . . but here is . . . 



I've seen several similar posts recently playing on this theme of alternates to elf on the shelf, but this is the only one, so far, that I have stopped to capture and share. I'll keep my eye out for more.

  2. Oh what a cutie she was as drummer! And Jonathan and those curls! He sure outgrew them! Photo-wise I also like the color best.

  4. You are a hoot.
    What time do you post? I usually do it when I get it together, 7 a.m., but that depends.
    I do not know how I keep missing your posts in my news feed!

    1. I was up before 5 this morning, but I had it ready to go although i made a few little edits. It is not that I want to get up so early, you understand. 🤓

  6. I like the drummer images. What part of it was AI? How do you feel about AI associated with photographic imagery?

  8. I like the colour version too, but would cut the yellow transit somewhat, if it would not spoil the values as a whole.
    JG was a gorgeous and photogenic baby.
    You are certainly getting the software under your control.
