wind dancing through firs
rain taps upon my window
night drifts to the west
Tis a rainy Seattle night, what we’re famous for.

Friday Morning Near Seattle
within dawn’s grey light
rise and meet our potential
calling geese move south
This morning greet with grey skies; very common on Seattle’s autumns. A weekend filled with rain awaits. Many rain drenched memories arise. Cafes, such sanctuaries of warmth.
From Tonight’s Walk
Walking in the night
Street lights serenading me
Foot steps upon dreams
Photoshopped Text Onto An Image Of Yoda
Pulled this together with Photoshop. Keeping my skills somewhat sharp.
Fun With Photoshop: Safeway & Albertsons
Several years ago now, grocery chain Albertson’s acquired one of their rivals, Safeway. (If you didn’t know this, here’s an article to bring you up to speed)
Reminiscing about that I had the idea to combine the two logos. Not very timely, but seemed kinda fun. Anyway, one of my goals is to do something with Adobe every day. So here’s today’s goofing around.
Exploring Canva Premium
I’ve fiddled with Canva for the past few months, mostly for editing images on my Samsung S9, but have mostly been an adherent to Photoshop for anything serious. I have some free time (good ol’ Covid19), so decided to experiment with the premium version. I have a 30 day free trial, and it looks easy enough to cancel it if I don’t want to keep it.
I like it a lot for mobile editing. I think it creates fine images, especially for posting to Instagram or Facebook. Most of what I’ve done is put some of my haiku on some photos I’ve taken. I also have created some images for a real estate agent friend’s Instagram and Facebook pages. I’ll see what I like and don’t, then go from there. Right now, I do like the tool, the way the UX works, and the final products. But we’ll see as I try to be more deliberate with it and, perhaps, have a production sort of mindset.
If you’re interested in trying Canva out yourself, check it out here. Full disclosure: this is a rewards link. It gives me some Canva credits if you download and use the app. This page explains it more.
A little fun with Photoshop
Whipped this up for my Pastor’s last Sunday (this coming Sunday).
