Title: Before and after
Post by: Palustris on December 15, 2006, 12:17:13
I am in the process of going through all our photographs of the garden taken since we moved here 11 years ago. The early ones were taken on a cheap free camera and have been scanned in. I am using Photoshop 7 to improve the quality of the images. Well, it is raining and blooming cold out there.
These are the same ish view 11 years apart.

Fan blinking tastic !   ;D  ;D 


In the second photo, it looks like you can almost reach out and brush your fingers over all those lovely plants.  I wonder if you could make a 3d picture out of it and have everyone sitting with those odd coloured specs on?

Eric. Lovely, lovely. really envious!! You have such a beautiful garden. I have a feeling this has been asked before but do you care for it on your own or do you have help?

Just my wife and I Lorna. Remember though that we are both retired so can work full time, weather permitting, on it.

Great comparison shots there eric. Plenty of changes and hard work represented there.

I too have photos of my garden taken before I started work on it. it was very over grown at the time and has gone through lots of changes since clearing it. I look back at them occasionaly to remind me just how far it has come. Sometimes i cant believe its the same garden!
