A POTPOURRI of MISCELLANEOUS IMAGES

Hanging photography can not only hide a hole in the wall, but in many cases invoke a long forgotten memory. As you peruse through our photography collection of posters, I hope you will find an image that you find aesthetically pleasing, inspiring or simply one that reflects your own personal moment frozen in time. Furthermore, the more we photograph the world, we inadvertently wind up with many common-themed images from our travels. This is also the place where we will showcase many of these similar subjects, such as chairs, barns, neon lights, diners, graffiti and more here. This area is dynamic and sure to expand, so come back often.

Today, these food eateries reflect a simplier time before ordering food via a kiosks is the norm, but an era where your server held a pencil behind his or her ear and wrote your order on a green & white guest check. So make you seat for a meal on a counter stool, not a car seat and enjoy a trip back in time as an appetizer before they disappear from the roadside.

With the use of Photoshop and/or third-party plug-in filter programs within Photoshop, any normal or maybe, not so good image(s) can be saved and distorted for the sake of creativity. But before you concluded that all theses images are the results of post-production, many are untouched photos are the aftermath of camera techniques or setting choices producing the effect,while others are simply the end product of the unknowingly subject garnering artistic magic. Note, each image will be presented in one one three categories: Post-Production Manipulation, those created by camera techniques and/or settings, and the third group, an untouched display where the subject itself was both the artist and canvas.
