playing with photoshop

I think Photoshop is genius. Every time I use it I find new ways to edit a photo or create new effects. I also enjoy learning from tutorials online. This one taught me how to make a photo look vintage and retro. I used a photo from my previous post and took it back in time! Hello, 1936...

New York {Part Four}: See you soon.


Delicious food. Pretty art. Amazing shows. Great people. Humidity, humidity, humidity. I loved my little visit to the city. You bet I'll return. 

^^ Levain Bakery was just around the corner from sister's apt. Highly recommend it!!

^^ Central Park, you beautiful you. 
^^ Notice the squirrel on the bottom right...they were everywhere!


^^ To say it was windy is an understatement! 

^^ Lots of love in the city!

Wicked. Phantom. Mamma Mia. AMAZING.

^^ Look up "MoMA | Rain Room". By far my favorite exhibit in NYC.

^^ Excuse the naky. I studied a lot of paintings/art in school and I was in heaven when I saw them in person!

^^ She never mentioned a self portrait...

And it wouldn't be a New York post without our friends Jay Z and Alicia...

New York {Part Three}: Let's be tourists.

This is when we put on our tourists shoes and visited every major tourist spot in NYC. We had such a wonderful time, especially having Monica and Garrett as our tour guides! Those two really know their way around the city. Thanks, guys! 
^^ A view from Garrett's building at night. Breath taking!


^^ We took one of the Statue Cruises to go see Lady Liberty!

^^ I can't get over this picture. When it is windy, you need an umbrella made of steel. Or else...
 









P.S. There are more pictures coming (yikes, I know)...this is just the beginning of our adventure!
