Photo Art

I have been experimenting with two photo editing tools for creating photo art, Dreamscopeapp.com, and PhotoScape.org. 

Dreamscopeapp.com converts the images to many types of art styles. The images are a very small JPEG which makes it okay for using on small product items created in my Zazzle.com product store (TamRyanPhoto) or small items on my website, www.tamryan.com.

Dreamscope Images made from my photos of birds and one of some visitors to the Sedona airport view during the sunset.











PhotoScape.org is a photo editing tool which has many options for editing such as converting a photo to an art piece using a Colored Pencil or Watercolor Pencil filter: 
















Great Egret Bathing at Gilbert Water Ranch

On January 5, 2018, about twenty Great Egrets and a couple of Snowy Egrets showed up at pond 2 at Gilbert Water Ranch in Gilbert, Arizona. They were mostly resting. But, this particular Great Egret was sitting low in the water until it finally dipped its head in the pond to start a bathing ritual. These are a few of the images that I captured during that morning.
