Ruby Tuesday: Getting Crabby


Fingerpaint Photo Effect
The Original
An Almost Leafless Crabapple Tree

To see more photos with a little bit of red or a lot of red click on the badge at the top of my post to visit Mary at Work of the Poet. It's hard to tell what kind of red images you'll find!

    Crab apples are not something you see much, here in SC.

  7. The fingerprint effect is appealing to me. It's almost as if the fruit was coated with sugar. Neat effects with the use of different effects, and no two people see the same thing. A nice ruby post!

  8. My daughter has a crabapple tree in her yard, and her dog hunts the ones that are starting to rot and eats them....he is so funny.
    BTW, I love the fingerpaint affect...it is really wonderful.

  9. Hi Carletta, I like the looks of your frosted crabapples. I always eat them when they are still green, I didn't know they would turn red. :-)

  11. I love what you did with the photo in the first shot. Very cool. Nice photo in any event. I had some red pictures but I don't have the energy to post them tonight. I may skip this week or post something in the morning. As always, your pictures are beautiful.

  19. The fingerpaint effect works well with this for it gives it a sense of age or harvest appeal. Nice soft colours of the crabs. Happy Ruby Tuesday!

  20. Always learning more on Ruby Tuesdays. I've had crab-apple drops for my Bach remedies, but never actually knew what they looked like.
    Nice pics, nice fruits.
    I am weak for the fingerpainted one.

  21. Usually I'd be partial to the closeup version, but for some reason having the crabapples sort of suspended in air makes the wide shot quite appealing.

  22. Carletta: I sure hope you don't stay crabby all day. Nice capture of the little crab apple.

  23. Your pictures are lovely. Sort of makes me think of Charlie Brown's
    Christmas tree. Take care.

  24. Nice editing of that crabapple photo, Carletta. I like the fingerpainting.

    I like your comment on my husband's Ruby Tuesday post ... men? follow directions?

    :-D

  27. Wow....love the shot of the apples against the blue sky! My camera and computer aren't speaking to one another...phhhhoooeyyy!

  28. Hi Carletta. The crab apples are such a great color! Have a wonderful Tuesday!!

    ReplyDelete
  29. Great color and a stark contrast against the leafless tree. very nice.

  30. Love your caption: Getting crabby :o)
    I don't think I ever saw a crab tree.
    Thank you for your advise about my laptop problem. I was so excited about getting the Photoshop. Now I just have to come up with plan B.

  32. a nice effect on the close up.

  33. Really like the finger paint effect. Great red for Ruby Tuesday

    ReplyDelete
  34. Hm... imagine this! We BOTH have crabby posts today! LOL! I'm thinking yours are prettier than mine! (I really like that painting effect!) Mine are more fun to watch though!

  35. Carletta ... in the way that "we all" tend to think of submissive I would NEVER even entertain the idea! But through studying the subject in the bible, I'm finding out that it doesn't really MEAN what we think it does! Peter even says that we ARE equal to our husbands! It's long and drawn out - and I didn't come to give a 'lesson' -- I just want you to know, I have NO INTENTION of just laying down and giving IN!!! ROFL!!! But that isn't what's required either!

    I hope your hubby DOES answer the questions!

  36. I love the effects - the sky looked like snow :)

  37. I love the original photo best … but the ‘effects’ are very ‘kewl’ too! Beautiful …
    Hugs and blessings,

  38. Pretty cool effect. It looks frosty. :-)

  39. We have deep red crab apples on our tree for the first time this year - still covered with leaves at the moment. I love the paint effect in the first.
