I don’t know what’s going on here, making out with a fish?

Old school bath tub in the middle of the yard.

A look at the manor.

There is a library on the property too.

This is my black and white version, it has been said that a successful logo should be able to translate into black and white well.

I went on to add some color and switch the look up a little. I have been visiting the site logopond.com and looking at the awesome logo work on there. It is a great site and is very inspirational.

Here is another version just a little change up to see some different looks. I think I am partial to the second logo myself.

The groomsmen on the way to the ceremony.

A beautiful place Oxon Hill Manor in Oxon Hill Maryland.

The groom minutes before the ceremony.

Good old David Jones, very photogenic.

Yes Joe in all his glory.

Here are some of my friends.

A little bit of bubbles to see them on there way after the reception.

Here it is taking a regular photo and making an Andy Warhol style image. I thought it was very simple and a lot of people like this style of art work i have seen it done many times with many different people.

I used an image of my little cousin who is awesome sheesing it up for the camera. The tutorial was a bit hard to follow, the format in which it was written needs work. Their end image had everything that I have black in mine a different color in theirs, they totally left out how to do that. I think if I took some time and analized it i could find out, maybe they just thought the reader could figure it out themselves? The final image is nice and vintage anyway maybe something you can give to your friends as a present, sounds like an idea i maight do!

Here is their finished product, pretty simple looking but it still has something.

I took it and tried to make it my own a little, with the grunge on the bottom. The steps did not work out for me exactly the way I expected, the gradient that I put over the text did not end up like the tutorials. I followed it exactly and then tweeked it around a little to see if I could get it but I couldn’t. I could sit around and really go at it and I have no doubt that I would figure it out, but I’m not going to do that. I am doing these tutorials to learn something not to perfect every one so it looks just like the original. So the tutorial was kind of difficult to follow in my opinion not just because of the gradient but there were some other steps that I didn’tget. This tutorial did have a PSD you could download though so maybe the secret is in there.

Here is what the guys at oogletutorials.com came up with it’s pretty cool, but it did give me a a funny idea..

I am really into LOST and this past season was awesome and this is my tribute. I used the same picture they did, all of my beach pictures are buried among my notebooks of picture CDs. This was a very easy tutorial and took very little time for me to complete. This honestly took like 4 steps total so go and see for yourself.

I took some random shots there are a lot of great buildings downtown.

Not Captain America, Captain Arturo!

I thought this was pretty cool, not what you expect to see at the Native American Museum, or any museum. I love to see the skaters doing their thing, I loved the days when I was on the board.

I thought this building was cool, The Native American Museum.

Me and my lady.

I have been taking a lot pictures of textures and shadows in hopes to use them in some of my graphic design.

A little fun.

I saw these little guys randomly placed on the walk to the museum, I thought they were the coolest little dudes. They are about a foot long and you could very well over look them when you walk by.

Fun by the fountain.

I like patterns, I thought this a great example.

When you have a great view of the subject, the sky can just bring that great touch like this wonderful blue.

I love the fact that I got the monument in the background.

We saw some dinosaurs, but I didn’t take that many more pictures sometimes it’s just fun to enjoy the day and not always hide behind the camera.  So I leave you with Alberto.
