I used Photoshop Element filters on one photo of Zorro to create this collage. This is my last portrait assignment for the digital photography class that I am auditing.
I have been so busy with the photos, reading assignments, two jobs, a hair appointment and the weather that I have not had time to visit your blogs or respond to your wonderful comments. Please forgive me and be patient. I still have to write a paper for tomorrow night's class. The topic: the Vermont
photos of
Lewis Hine. Hine began photographing child labor in 1908. The photos were influential in changing child labor laws in this country. His work is featured in the book
Counting on Grace by
Elizabeth Winthrop.
Photo from Shorpy.com: the 100-year-old photography blogFebruary 1910. Addie Card, 12 years old, anemic little spinner in North Pownal Cotton Mill, Vermont. Girls in mill say she is ten years. She admitted to me she was twelve; that she started during school vacation and would "stay." Photograph and caption by Lewis Wickes Hine.
Commenter Joe Manning adds: "this was the first Hine photo I researched for my Lewis Hine Project. Addie lived to be 94 years old. See the whole story of my research at
www.morningsonmaplestreet.com/addiesearch1.html." I recommend that you visit the site.
When clicked, these photos will open, full size, in a new window.

Zorro walks by the chickens who are ruining our day lily garden. The cat enjoys stalking the chickens and startling them, but never tries to catch them. He did the same thing with wild turkeys in New Hampshire.The chickens enjoy having their dust baths in amongst the lilies. They then nibble the lilies after their baths. The lilies are not doing well and we are not pleased. I love this photo because of the look on the cat's face.
