What's the name of a picture taking during the 60s at Ohio St. University of a person sticking a flower in gun

it was taken at a protest demonstration. it's black and white and the man is placing a flower in the barrel of a gun

What's the name of a picture taking during the 60s at Ohio St. University of a person sticking a flower in gun
I looked this up a couple years ago for someone else. The picture wasn't taken at Ohio State. It was a Vietnam War protest in Washington DC, I believe. The photo is called "Flower Power". Here's the link for you:





http://www.abqtrib.com/news/2008/jan/25/...





I think that photo keeps getting confused with the story of one of the slain students who had put a flower in a gun the previous day:


http://speccoll.library.kent.edu/4may70/...


Shortly after four students were killed by National Guard bullets on the Kent State University campus on May 4, 1970, Russian poet Yevgeny Yevtushenko wrote a poem dedicated to Allison Krause, one of the slain students. Its theme was based on the report that the day before her death, Ms Krause had put a flower on a National Guardsman's rifle, saying that "flowers are better than bullets." The poem, "Flowers %26amp; Bullets," was printed in Pravda, the Communist party newspaper.





This site has a lot of pictures related to the Kent State massacre:

Reply:I don't know the name of the photo but I believe it appeared on the cover of either Time or Life magazine and I believe it was actually Kent State University not Ohio St. I know it had to do with Vietnam War protest and pretty sure it was a national guardsmen whose rifle the man put the flower in and shortly after there was a bunch of shooting by the guardsmen. Don't remember which year though. Been a long time ago and my memory isn't what it once was.


Would like to find some pictures of white flowers to print out on the computer?

Is there such a thing as a welsh lily flower?

I have a Dog and she is called Welsh Lilly Flower I was wondering if there was such a thing and if there is a web site I could go to to view a picture of it?

Is there such a thing as a welsh lily flower?
I will take a stab at this one...I keep coming up with the Snowdon Lily as being synonymous with the Welsh lily Flower. follows link:

There are other assorted wild onions listed on various sites, but this particular one seemed a bit rare, and mentioned with pride in reference to Wales.





if I find something else that fits, I will certainly edit this answer, but for now, this is my story and I'm stickin' to it. :-)

~good luck! and enjoy the planning, even if it gets really busy!


What is the difference between the flowers "Gaillardia" and Rudbeckia"? The pictures of them look the same.

Rudbeckia look kind of like black-eyed Susan--always a shade of yellow with dark centers. Gallardia are a coarser flower, good for drying, and they have multicolored pedals (like orange near the center turning yellow at the tips) with a lighter center. There are also differences in when and how often they bloom. Both are great landscape brighteners.

What is the difference between the flowers "Gaillardia" and Rudbeckia"? The pictures of them look the same.
Gaillardia have more color variations than rudbeckia. But the simple answer is, the former is an annual, the latter a perennial.
Reply:I think the varieties are enlarging and maybe making it more difficult to differentiate. The Rudbeckia I am familiar with has yellow ray flowers with the large dark-brown center. The Gaillardia has shorter fuller flowers that are usually two or three colored bands of yellow, orange or red. Other than that, I really don't know how else to describe them, but the pictures I've seen, and live flowers have looked pretty much as described.


Do you know the name of this blue flower?

I can't find a pic of it anywhere but it is almost a teal colour. Its shape is similar to a Bird of Paradise, I think but it is much smaller. I thought it might be a type of tropical flower that is dyed blue but I am not sure... all I know that it is a much different blue than most 'blue' flowers like hydrangeas, etc. Names and/or links to pictures would be greatly appreciated as I am using a dark teal as one of my wedding flowers and I thought it might look good for the boutonnieres.

Do you know the name of this blue flower?
Is it a lily or orchid?
Reply:Maybe a blue freesia, maybe a delphinium...you should probably go to a florist and ask because you'll need to order something they can get and they can suggest a lot of things.

I need help identifying a flower?

It is pretty small. It grows on a stalk to about half a foot high with the leaves wrung around the stem and very wavy looking. It has long purple flowers at the top that acording to my friends at school say are edible. I'm not sure about that. It's native to the south (I think. It grows everywhere) and I can tell by the smell that it's an herb. Any ideas? pictures would help.

I need help identifying a flower?
could be wild heather,


heres a pic of scotch heather its similiar
Reply:Hi:


I am a landscaper and designer and also live in the south. I am not sure of the specie you are describing. There are several different purple flowers that grow in the south. Some flowers are edible. Some herbs that have purple flowers would be oregano or chives. There are perennial and annual flowers that also may fit your description.





I will link you to the gallery of plants section of my website. There is a page on annual and perennial flowers. Maybe one of these flowers will be yours. I will also link you to the site map, as this page has everything that is on the website. Browse through and see if there is anything else that might help you with this or any other garden project or plant specimens. Good luck to you and if you need further suggestions or help, I would be happy to continue to help you find the identity of this specimen. Have a great day!

Can you help identify this flower?

I took this picture of a flower, and I'm having trouble finding out what it is. It's purple with petals, and has some sort of spikey center. You can view the photograph at the website below -





http://s17.photobucket.com/albums/b82/ju...

Can you help identify this flower?
this picture looks to be Echinacea purpurea "Rubinstern" (ruby star cone flower) though in books they define it as a red to purple color it is much more purple than red, it is definately an Echinacea (common name cone flower) but what exact cultivar is up for debate, i believe it to be rubistern.............blanco
Reply:Looks almost like a coneflower or some type of daisy.
Reply:it looks like a purple cone flower
Reply:Looks like a cone flower, but it's not. The center of this flower is dark and flat... the center of a cone flower is shaped as a cone. This flower, I'd like to say, is an African daisy. Their colors range from white, magenta, purple, yellow, orange and rust. They're used as ground covers on the side of roads. You can see it all over the southern California freeways. They are hardy and can compete with other plants very well. Blooming all spring long and first half of the summer.
Reply:purple coneflower
Reply:sure looks lie a "purple coneflower" aka


Echinacea Purpurea

What flower is this?

I had these plants pop up in my flowerbed and in the grass nearby. They are bulbs, the ones I saw were about as big as a green onion. The leaves are skinny and long and look almost like grass. The flowers are white with 6 fairly skinny petals and a yellow center. They do not droop like bells, they are wide open like a childs picture of a flower. I live in Ohio and they just started blooming about a week or two ago. I've looked online and in books and can't quite figure out what they are. Any clue?

What flower is this?
Sounds like Stars of Bethlehem's but you can check for bulb sites and double check.

I found two of these stalks today while out walking. I know I didn't plant them, but they are so beautiful!

Can anyone tell me what kind of flower is growing in my yard?(picture included)?
They are wild lilies, so pretty, it is so hard to find the bulb to transplant they are awsome. Grandpa used to call the naked ladies, because of no leaves.
Reply:These bulbs are readily available and easy to plant and grow. They are drought tolerant too. Report It

Reply:Those are really pretty flowers. They look like daylilies.
Reply:They look as if they could be a type of day lily. Possibly an Asiatic Lily.
Reply:lillies, or were u just trying to show ur cool pic of the spider?
Reply:i would think they are spider lillies thats what they look like but i aint so sure.....my mom would know i'll ask her...lol
Reply:Looks like an Orkid
Reply:It appears to be a variation of the lily family. There are many variations of lillies.
Reply:It's some kind of lilly - but I'm not sure the exact type.
Reply:If it does not have any leaves while blooming, then this would be a Lily by the name of "Naked Lady". It will develop leaves after the blossoms die.
Reply:Lillies
Reply:Reminds me of amaryllis.,looks like a member of the lily family
Reply:That 's a lovely " Magic Lily " so called , because they suddenly , " Magically " appear , with little or no foliage. The foliage comes up early in the year , then dies back to the ground. later a large stalk appears , on which these beautiful flowers appear ..


You are lucky to have such nice blooms.... Be sure to fertilize it, after the blooms are gone......
Reply:I think it's an amaryllis. I cant see the stalk but I have one, too, and it just finished blooming. It grows from a bulb. Check this site:


http://www.amaryllis.com/
Reply:Suprise lily or naked lady lily.
Reply:My Aunt calls them Ghost Lilies-I assume it is because of the color. It is a species of Amyrillis. Take your picture to a nursery, they can give you the exact name. The leaves come up about the same time as Daffodills. The leaves look a bit like Daffodill leaves. Then they die out. About now is when the flower stack appears. I gotta go look for mine.
Reply:Amaryllis belladonna -- commonly called "Naked Lady" (no leaves)
Reply:Nice photo. Looks like naked lady, a kind of amaryllis I think. Are they pink? Strappy leaves die back in late spring and flower stalks grow out of a clump of bulbs without foliage.
Reply:The flower is an amaryllis belladonna, more commonly known as belladonna lily, March lily, or naked lady. It's a member of the amaryllidaceae family. The belladonna lily's specific flowering time is late summer, February, and March. Amaryllis belladonna in its natural habitat is found in small dense groups among rocks. Therefore the best place to plant them would be in a rock garden.
Reply:around here they are called naked lady or summer lily...in spring you will see leaves/foilage similar to daylilies..then the foilage dies back and in mid to late summer the stalk grows up and blooms...there is no foilage at this time





i am still waiting on mine to grow up and bloom...i believe different varities of the naked ladies bloom at different times of the summer
Reply:That is definately an amaryllis. It's not a magic lilly or any of that other nonsense. Amaryllis (or the ones I've been around) are usually deeper shades, like red. However, feel fortunate to have such a beautiful non-common shade.
Reply:there magic lilies or lycoris squamigera. I grow them all over my yard. they should have a bunch of leaves in spring that die as summer begins
Reply:japanise orccid?
Reply:It looks more like a spider to me?





I have some yellow flowers like that I planted earlyer in the year and the tag is still on them. But I am too lazy to get a flash light and go get the tag. Mine are something like a Mandvilla or something. But then again a flower is a flower to me. .but I do know that is a spider on it.
Reply:It looks like a lily... I have tiger lillies that look just like that, but they're orange... I don't know what kind of lily it is specifically, but that's what it is.
Reply:If they have long stems without leaves on it then its called a naked lady because there are no leaves.
Reply:Amaryllis belladonna,or,if you like Naked Ladies or Belladonna lily from South Africa.It's a bulb(leaves die down) when flowering.Very good cut flower.
Reply:Looks like a Lilly to me.
Reply:Sota looks like lillies to me. However, the lack of leaves poses a question. Did they ever have leaves or did something eat them or did they fall off? If they are lillies they will bulbs underground, sometimes some immature bulbs showing just at groud level. When they stop blooming dig one uo, if you get a clump of small bulbs it may be a lily. You could transblant to somewhere you like. Alsi, if there are several bulbs you can split some off and start a new plant. I suggest if you really want to know what it is, take the picture to a horticulterist. Good luck. They sure are pretty flowers.
Reply:Look like Lillies to me....but I am no expert..

Advice or tips on taking pictures of an event?

After my family had a look at my macro shots of flowers, they decided to make me take pictures for my niece's first birthday. I'm pretty scared cause its my niece's first birthday and I really don't want to mess up. Any advice or tips on taking pictures of a baby at a birthday party? I'm using a Canon PowerShot SD400.

Advice or tips on taking pictures of an event?
First, don't be scared. If your family liked your macro shots of flowers, your picture taking skills are okay. I can help with a few tips that will make it easier to take good pictures at this event.


Stay close to the subjects and use your flesh if you can. Use the camera's optical viewfinder, not the LCD screen on the back. Use the optical zoom lens, but try to avoid using the digital zoom for your pictures. Concentrate on holding your camera steady (using the optical viewfinder instead of the LCD screen will make this a far easier). Make sure your camera batteries are charged and bring a spare charged battery if you have one and can do that. Set your camera on its highest quality image setting and make sure that you have an empty formatted flash card. If you have a spare card, bring it. And finally and most important, take your time, but take plenty of pictures.


You really should have no problems at all with this event. It will be far easier than doing macro pictures of flowers.


Good luck!
Reply:set it to speed shot? cuz babies move a lotta and fast so if you want like a good pic of someone moving you should set it to that motion effect. just take pics of w/e the baby is doing. most likely you will get a pretty natural shot of the baby. you'll do fine (:
Reply:As far as camera settings go, unless you know exactly what you're doing put the camera on Auto and leave it there.





Indoors, use flash. Don't get too close to your subject or you'll overexpose.

I want a flower tattoo going down my ribs. I haven't been able to find any cute pictures. Can you help?

The tattoo is my way of remembering three people in my life that were really close to me and passed away. Although it's not a traditional memorial, flowers have alot of meaning associate with these people. The picture doesn't have to represesent three (either three flowers or branched off three ways) but it has to be soft and cute on my side. I don't want it to be too big; probably just the length of my ribs. If you could help that'd be amazing. I've been looking for months and want to have at least a good idea of what I want so I can have the artist draw the perfect thing up for me. Thanks!

Ribs...ouch. *wince*
Reply:why on your ribs???!!! Why not somewhere not stupid!
Reply:There are sooo many flowers out there! (I was a floral designer for a few years) First start by figuring out if you'd want something tropical, more european, wild flowers, there's so many. Then pick what you think would look good, given the shape and everything. Then colors. I love calla lilies but I decided not to get one because they have depth in them that I wasn't too sure would be captured by the tattoo. I chose a plumeria, same place where you want. It was my first, 2 sittings, total of 5 1/2 hours, $600, full of pain, seriously. But I love it. Good luck.

What is the name of this flower?

It has big white flowers that bloom and a lot of leaves. There is about 7 flowers blooming right now. They look like big bells if you turn them upside down. This flower started growing beside my parents house and they are unsure of what it is called and what the best suitable growing conditions are for this plant to survive the rest of the summer. We are also curious if it will regrow next year and if it could possibly be poisoness to children or pets. I do have a picture of it; however, I do not know how to post the flower for everyone to see.

What is the name of this flower?
I think it could be an Angel's Trumpet. I have them and yes it will most likely come up next year. When the flowers are done, does it get a prickly green thing there? If it does that is full of seeds and will cause it to come up again if you live in a warm area that doesn't get much freezing time in the winter months.

There is an area you can ask questions and you can upload the picture and I will see if I can help you or any other visitors may be able to help you. I will also link you to the gallery of plants section as there is a page on annual and one on perennials. This may help in the identification and learning about the flower. I will also link you to the site map as this has everything that is on the website. Browse through and see if there is anything else you can find that may help you with the flower or any other landscape project. Good luck to you and have a great day!

Where to take beautiful pictures in New York City?

Hi,


I am an opera singer about to produce my first CD. I will be walking around NYC sometime in the next two weeks to take pictures of me in my pretty dress for the cover of the CD. I am not from NYC but have visited many times. Any suggestions of where I could have the shots taken? The CD is religious in theme, but it doesn't have to be at a religious setting - big churches are out because of lighting issues. I am thinking stone structures and flowers, outdoors or indoors - either is fine. Suggestions??


Thanks!

Where to take beautiful pictures in New York City?
Go to Central Park...There is this beautiful white small bridge that goes over a pond...it is a really nice scene, with the city behind you. There is tons of flowers and trees that would be a part of the pic. You can also go to Cloisters Park in Upper Manhattan. In Cloisters Park, they have castle settings.

The picture your talking about was turned into classic poster that said a lot about Kent State Shooting. I asked question on posters name and if it was still available. Someone told me who took picture, and it's name. Completely forget name of photographer name was New York(?) Went looking for my question and could not find it. It was under heading:Any old hippie around. At the time searched photographer and name of poster and got no hits. If you had one in mint condition it would be worth a fortune.

Do whatever you love and relaxes you and then they will be the right pictures.
Reply:Wel, I am a Professional Landscape, Nature and Wildlife photographer so I have photos of my own work on the walls of the bathrooms in my house.





It is entirely up to you. But I would suggest a nice closeup photograph of a flower would be nice.





Alot of people but up those tacky looking pictures of a nude female figure getting out of the tub in the bathroom. I never liked those personally.





good luck in whatever you decide to do
Reply:I found these pictures of bathubs and i embellished them with glitter pens and the frame I added glitter. You can getthem like at a micheals but i got mine at the Dollar Tree. yep a dollar with the pens i made the tubs come out more or be more noticeable.
Reply:What ever you decide for a theme then pic pictures that go with it.
Reply:You really should consider who uses this particular bathroom. I like to entertain my guests with surprises such as New Yorker cartoons or funny, surprising and even shocking images. For yourself, any pictures hung should be something that gives you please to look at. I think that framed kids art can work well. Because this is a bathroom, you should hang things that impact quickly, and you do not have to worry about the effect of continual viewing. Personally I prefer hanging art to themed-based wall hangings that make me feel like I am in a model home or dentist office, with art the effect is much more personal and has much greater depth.
Reply:Hi, here is a suggestion. Why don't you look at tons of images of bathrooms. I got many ideas for a variety of projects just by doing this. Go into Google or Yahoo image search. Key in bathrooms or bathroom design or whatever you're searching for. Voila, you now have thousands of photographs to choose from. Most images link to a website for more information.

What flower (or flowers) goes well with calla lilies?

I am in the beginning stages of planning my wedding. I know FOR SURE that I want my bouquet to be calla lilies. I would also this to flow throughout my entire bridal party… bridesmaids, groom, groomsmen, parents, etc. and reception… table arrangements and so on. But I think it would be a little blah to have JUST calla lilies. The problem is what goes with the simple elegance of a calla lily? My wedding is going to have that feel- simple elegance. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Also if you have links to pictures of table arrangements and such that include calla lilies and another flower I would love that as well! Thanks!

What flower (or flowers) goes well with calla lilies?
What about just adding some roses. Or something that hangs like lilacs or purple statice depending on what your accent color is.


Or you could have a bouquet of different colored one on each table. All red at one table, orange, yellow, etc. It would add color without loosing the elegance.





There are a couple examples here:

Beautiful flowers!
Reply:My daughter chose calla lilies for her bouquet. Just a simple arrangement. The bridesmaids carried bouquets of miniature calla lilies and the boutonniers were miniature calla lilies. It was all lovely. I personally don't like mixing other flowers with calla lilies because they are so elegant and make a tasteful, but bold, statement on their own. For centerpieces, you can try an entirely different, though equally dramatic flower -- white orchids. Just a few in a tall vase are beautiful, very different, and not as costly as you might think.
Reply:Wow, there are so many options when it comes to calla lilies. I'm advise you to take a look around the Internet to get some ideas of what you really like, and/or talk to your florist for more ideas and pictures (they should have thousands of pictures for you to look at). Here are my suggestions:


1. Calla lilies, roses, and some other filler such as stock, queen anne's lace, freesia (a very nice, good smelling wedding flower) You can see some flower types off of www.sierraflowerfinder.com


2. Calla lilies alone look fabulous with some leaf detailing. Use apidistra leaves for that bold sophisticated look.


3. Calla lilies look great with tulips. They look better together then with roses. Perhaps you can have the guys where tulip boutonnieres. Tall calla lilies for the reception arrangments would look very elegant.


Try looking for place like theknot.com or weddingchannel.com for some more photos. If you go to google.com and type in "wedding flowers". You're sure to find many ideas. Congratulations on your upcoming wedding!
Reply:How about another tropical flower like proteas or cymbidian (I'm not sure of the spelling.) orchid? They are quite durable and come in many colors that would be compatible with calla lilies. Or, you may want your bridesmades to wear haku (head) leis with a variety of small colorful flowers.
Reply:I am fond of ivy. I think you might be fine with just a few long trailing greens like that to set off the whiteness.
Reply:Gerber daises and maybe white carnations
Reply:I had Calla Lillies at my wedding and they were beautiful with Roses. I had them flowing throughout my WHOLE wedding party, on tables, ect... Since they were white and my girls dresses where a royal blue, of course, I had red roses. I hope this helps....I think they are the most beautiful flower out there...Just in my opnion..:)

Is there a website that has gardening plans with pictures?

I'm a beginner at gardening and don't know what flowers and plants look nice together or how to plant them. So I am looking for a site that has examples of gardens and points out what kind of flowers and plants were used. I found Burpee.com which sells a kit but I am looking for something more detailed. It doesn't even need to be a plant selling company. Or maybe a web site of experts that i can send a picture to and could label the flowers.

Is there a website that has gardening plans with pictures?
Garden Gate puts out nice and easy garden plans. You also get a shopping list to help you when you go to the garden center. You get a watercolor picture to show the garden and there are tons of options to choose from. The plants in the designs are generally quite easy to come by and you can substitute also if you can't find something - just stick the a similar color and height when doing so.





I recommend these plans as they take the guess work out! Best of luck. Happy Gardening.
Reply:Better Homes and Gardens usually has things like this. You can also check the Home Depot, Lowes websites for info. A lot of the flower catalogs sell kits.





I find that trial and error works well myself - I've seen a lot of things in catalogs that I liked but then when I've tried them they didn't work so well in my climate (Maryland) compared to where the pictures were from.





Also depends on what you want to do. I don't have a lot of time to garden so every year I ONLY put in perennials. But people who have more time often put in a lot of annuals (but then you have to buy more the next year and do it all over again). Also depends on how much sun, partial sun and shade you have in your backyard.





Some good basic perennials are: butterfly bushes, black eyed susans, ivy. The butterfly bushes and black eyed susans bloom all summer long into the fall. Some good bulbs are tulips and daffodils - but these are early bloomers and are gone by May usually. I also love hydrangea but my soil isn't conducive to growing it.





Good luck! Gardening is fun - I'm sure no matter what you put in the ground you'll enjoy it even if you decide to move it.

How can I find the name of my thornless rose bush from just the description of the flower?

The flowers start off cream colored, but as they age, they get almost deep ruby red to pink streaks and pink coloring in the petals. New growth is a deep ruby red, and it is definitely nearly 99% thornless. My bush is over five feet tall, and almost as wide. If anyone wants more details, and thinks they have an answer, I can also email them a picture of both the shrub and the flowers at their different stages.

How can I find the name of my thornless rose bush from just the description of the flower?
Unfortunately finding a name of any rose is quite difficult because there are sooooo many. But with some luck, you may get lucky!





Your best bet is to:


a) post a picture here and see what results you get,


b) contact your local rose garden club and see if they can help,


c) post a picture at the gardenweb forum and see what results you get (www.gardenweb.com go to forums, garden web galleries, name that plant...),


d) contacting some rose nurseries (try www.ashdownroses.com, www.heirloomroses.com, www.antiqueroseemporium.com)





It would help if you knew about the rose...How old is it? Did you plant it? Does it have a scent? Do you know what type of rose it is...Things like that.





Hope this helps! :)

Can someone help me identify this flower?
I believe your flower is a lily.





Lilium, the genus, is the Latin form of the Greek word 'Lerion' for the Madonna Lily. Red lily was first described by the famous Swedish botanist Carl von Linne (Linnaeus) in 1753.





Lilies are one of the most beautiful, and graceful of all summer-blooming flowers.





Lilies belong to the Lilium genus consisting of less than 100 known species, occurring in all parts of the Northern Hemisphere.





Lilies are believed to have been under cultivation longer than any other ornamental flower, having existed in gardens 3,000 years ago. Floral designs, particularly of Lilies, made their appearance and became very popular in the 18th dynasty of Egypt.





Oh and they also come in many different colores.


My favorate is the Pink Stargazer lily.

You can't.





When you use flash layouts, what you see is what you get - there is no way of editing or tampering with the code to get it to look the way you want.





That's why not that many people use them, because the few sites that do offer them make them look terrible and ugly and there's nothing you can do about it.

There are so many beautiful flowers that it would be extremely difficult to say. And, you would be getting MY opinion of what I think is the most beautiful.

What kind of flower pot would be cool for this kind of person?

For an end-of-the-year gift for each of my teachers, I'm painting a flower pot. However, I have no clue what to paint on my Language Arts/Reading teacher's flower pot. I'll explain her and you can give me some ideas.





- She likes snowboarding and blading (in the winter.)





- She likes Jack Russels (she has one.)





- She likes the color green.





- She doesn't like flowery things or girly colors (pink, lavender, light blue.)





- She likes to play Scrabble (but she isn't absessed with it.)





- She's really funny.





- She likes gardening.











Those are the things I know about her. It's pretty sad I only know that much because she was my sixth grade teacher, my 7th grade Reading and Language Arts teacher, and my 8th grade Reading and language Arts teacher. I have three main teachers because at our school, we don't have a different teacher for each subject- there aren't enough classes and teachers for that, it's a Catholic School (there are ten people in my class, including me.)





It would be nice if anyone could give me ideas (pictures are also VERY HELPFUL!!!)





Thanks in advance!

What kind of flower pot would be cool for this kind of person?
What a wonderful idea. I loved Laura's idea of spelling something out in Scrabble letters. if you have these letters you could glue them on with a craft glue.





Maybe have an outdoor scene with different seasons, one being winter with a person on a snowboard, maybe spring with a Jack Russel with a gardening glove or shovel in his mouth..like he's running, summer could be her screaming "School's Out For Summer" (make her hair look kind of crazy or her hands waving or her dancing...show movement), fall could be an apple with "The Best Teacher Ever" on it...maybe that could be the Scrabble part.





If this seems hard you can always decoupage it. Decoupage is when you basically glue pictures, cut outs from magazines, buttons, little trinkets, Scrabble letters...anything on it and then put a thin layer of glue over it.





Good Luck!
Reply:I would paint scrabble letters that spell out positive and motivational words. Maybe even words that would motivate her as a teacher like education, learning, imagination. You could paint your background green if she likes the color.





By the way, very thoughtful gift for you teachers!

Black and white pictures with a splash of color?

ive seen pictures that are black and white, except for one small detail. for example, a black and white picture of a girl holding a flower, however the flower is its original color, yellow, and the contrast between the flower and the black and white is pretty. how do you make this effect on a picture?

Reply:Here is one that I posted in Flickr. It's quite easy with almost any version of Photoshop. You can take any color picture got to Image%26gt;Adjust%26gt;De-Saturate. This enables your history brush and you can brush the color back into any item in the photo.

Reply:Using Adobe Photoshop:


1. Convert the original image to Grayscale and Save As a separate file. Copy this B%26amp;W image.


2. Re-open the original image (the colored one), and paste the copied B%26amp;W image over it.


3. So now you have 2 layers to work with: the original colored one, and the B%26amp;W one.


4. Working on the B%26amp;W layer, use the Lasso tool the select the area that you wish to have in color, ie. the yellow flower.


5. Use the Select%26gt;Feather drop-down tool to smoothen the edges of your selection.


6. Press delete, and repeat steps 4 - 6 till you achieve the desired effect.


7. Flatten the image, and Voila!
Reply:In traditional photography this was usually done by creating a "sandwich" of two or more copies of the same image using special (lithographic) film and then overlaying the images in a register device. They could then be set up for commercial printing presses or the picture could be re-shot on color film. I once worked for a company whose owner had developed the technique to the point where they employed a team of artists to design text and graphic images and then took as many exposures and layers as necessary to create the final images as slides. One slide with complex text/coloring or designs could easily run into hundreds of $$$ (late 70's). PC graphic programs put most such companies out of business by the mid 80's.





Today it can be done easily with any graphics program that allows you to work with photographs and "Layers". If you have Photoshop or a similar program click Help and use the Search function to look up "layers" and see if they have a tutorial that will step you through the process. You can make multiple layers into a sandwich of your own design.





Always start by making a copy of you original picture and use the copy to test the process. Also, beware of using the "flatten" option in any processing. In most programs once you choose this option it combines all layers into one and you will no longer be able to manipulate the individual parts.





Good luck.
Reply:What you do is use a editor with a mode to make the picture black and white.Then use the editor to zoom in and pixel by pixel dot by dot by dot color what you want colored!


Fun but time consuming!
Reply:Most of these photographs are altered using computer software. If you have a program like Adobe or PhotoSuite at home, you can do it too. Sometimes it will even work on Microsoft Paint! You can use your freehand cutting tool to cut out and copy the item you want to remain in color in your photograph. Then, use your grayscale tool to make your photograph black and white. Then, paste in the piece you cut out, which will be it's original color. I once did a picture of a dandelion field and I made them all black and white save one, which I later pasted in as it's original color then used some coloring tools to make it hot pink. These can be a lot of fun and are truly unique.

How can I find a professional photographer to view my pictures online and give me advice ?

I would like to find someone who can not only look at my pictures, but give me advice and help me use my camera to get the best possible pictures. I have a Minolta Dimage 6. I just started taking pictures and would LOVE to take great pictures. I have tons of neighbor kids I took at a local park that has tons of flowers and such. Those, I think, turned out really nice. One mother used my pictures for school pictures instead of paying the school. That really made me feel good. But there is still so much I do not know and would like to learn. I just havent found anyone who will take me under their wing and help me. PLEASE SOMEONE HELP!!!

How can I find a professional photographer to view my pictures online and give me advice ?
You do not need to go to formal school to become a photographer but you have to learn it from somewhere be it from a class room environment or from you reading and doing things on your own.





You also have alot of people here that can give good advice (and bad) so you have to take it with a grain of salt and not get offended when somebody tells you something that you don't want to hear. You need to have a website or something and give a link to your pictures.





Below is some information that will also help you.





1. You should learn the technical aspects of photography and your camera (composition, shutter speed, rules of thirds, depth of field etc), once you understand these you will be able to create better images.





2. Shoot in "M" (manual mode) because you will have more control over your camera and not the other way around. When you are in one of the "Auto" modes the camera will just read the highlights and shadow areas and try to get you a picture. The camera is not smart enough to know what you are shooting.





3. You can start reading all kinds of books on this subject and get information from the internet. This includes web based classes, manufactures web sites to personal blogs.





4. Buy the best DSLR camera that you can afford this also includes good lenses. Take out your camera and manual sit down and go over all the buttons and knobs etc.. this is the best way for you to learn what your camera can do.





5. Start shooting with your camera to get practice and from what you are learning from reading and doing you will get better. Practice does make perfect. Take notes while shooting and then look at your photos on the computer find the best one from that set and see what you did to get the shot.





6. You can get yourself a job as a photographers assistant (be it payed or free) and learn from that person.





7. My suggestion is to find a part of photography that you would have an interest in and point in that direction.





Since you have access to the internet here is a start: Some you have to pay for and some are free, start with the free stuff of course.

To start you can become a student member of both ASMP and NPPA. Those memberships will get you connected to some pros and help you in your quest.





You may find that like most pros, going to school and learning how to compose, expose, develop and print your images is the first big step.

Where can I have my picture taken with live bunnies in a live flower garden?

I know the photagrapher's name is Chad Engle, but I do not know where his studio is located. I believe that it is somwhere in Kentucky.

Where can I have my picture taken with live bunnies in a live flower garden?
Just about anywhere if you get permisson from a flower shop or person with a live flower garden and go to a farm supply and buy a bunch of bunnies and then try to sell them back after you are done or just give them back if your project is important enough.. the bunnies probaby don't cost much.


Could you identify this flower? sorry i know i asked this before but this time i have pictures!?

Ok so i have this flower project where i need to key out and then press flowers for my Highschool. I found this one flowerand it is about 1 and a half feet tall, it has red leaves that when you look lower down into the stalk there is green. it has tiny white flowers that you cant see hardly unless you look through a magnifying glass...I am not certain on the following info!:


i am pretty sure it has...:5 petals, more than two sepals


oh and i live in northern california and the flower was in my backyard among easter lillies and ferns and other various wildflowers and grasses. it is in mostly shade but it is out int he open...and...i picked it today so it is out in the spring and in april...


here is a picture of it:

Could you identify this flower? sorry i know i asked this before but this time i have pictures!?
I posted on your other question, and there are links to local wildflower ID sites. BUT off of the top of my head, it looks like a member of the carrot family, Apiaceae (although it is not a carrot, sorry!), which was formerly known as Umbelliferaceae. If it smells nice when you crush the leaves it is probably an herb which is naturalized, in which case I would look up "coriander" or 'chervil" and explore their genuses.





Edit: It may be a wild chervil. If it's not, it's probably in the same genus. It's hard to tell with fuzzy pictures.


Wild chervil: Chaerophyllum procumbens
Reply:could be a type of angiosperm {monocot}...A plant that produces fruits....Ive seen the leaves before but the pics are kind of fuzzy.
Reply:Haha! Thats quite scary ending up on another question. Anyway...Anthriscus sylvestris? I don't think the red on the leaves is normal. Looks like a nutrient deficiency possibly.

Find a place to decorate my pictures?

I want to make a photo with black and white and then have one thing in the photo colored. Like a flower having color and then the rest of the picture be black and white. If anyone could give me a website that does this I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks!

Find a place to decorate my pictures?
I don't know of any web sites; just software. I use Photoshop CS2. If you want to email the image to me I'll do it for you. No problem.


If i take a picture of someone's flower and sell it do i owe them money?

meaning if i go into someones yard with their permission and take a picture of a flower in their garden and sell it do i have to pay them or is that up to me or up to them or what?

If i take a picture of someone's flower and sell it do i owe them money?
If the flower is unique perhaps there could be a property issue, but in any case if you asked permission and they gave it there should be no problem. The only thing that comes in would be again if the flower was somehow unique, like if the guy had developed some type of hybrid. In that case I would strongly suggest getting a property release before trying to publish the image. If you have no plans for commercial publication and only want to use the image for artistic prints then you need no release.





And ipshwitz, have you really been a professional photographer for 10 years? Your website http://www.wise-photos.net/index.asp says since 1998 and you are only 25 years old. So did you become a pro when you were 15 or were you 17? Maybe we should call you Uberboy!
Reply:I don't think so, but how could they prove it anyway? especially if it's close up....
Reply:No you don't have to pay, unless you promised to do so when you took the picture.


Obviously, it is up to you what you do, but maybe you could make them a gift of an enlargement of the photo, to show your appreciation.
Reply:no, you don't OWE them anything. But, maybe a copy of the picture and a thank you note would be nice. It was their flower and they were nice enough to let you take the picture.....I say make a copy of the picture, buy a pretty frame, and write a nice thank you note.
Reply:Hey! Real business woman takes ALL - gives nothing! :D
Reply:You do not need permission to sell or distribute an image if the flower or person for that matter is in view from a public place such as sidewalk. Besides for a flower they are going to have a hard time proving that it's the flower on their front yard.
Reply:Only if you agreed to give them a fee or something as a condition of gaining access to the flower in question.





Probably would be nice to give them a print in case there is any ambiguity here.
Reply:You keep the money....your subject is an object not a person, so you don't need consent to sell
Reply:No, there are no royaltees that are required to be given to the owner of the flower. Now, as a generous offer you could give them something because it was their work and time that created the subject you photographed.





Also, you can't walk right onto their property and take the photo. Be sure you get permission from them first, otherwise it is tresspassing.





It's always best to be generous to those who have helped you create an item for sale. Whether you are photographing their flower or drawing their house, it's still theirs. And even though you are not required to pay them, it's nice to give them a little something.
Reply:It is your art so you need not pay them. If they took you to court they would have no claim.
Reply:even if it's in "their" yard, it's not "their" flower- humans don't own vegitation, i'd say to just give them a nice print of the photo, and call it even.

Need a specific flower picture!?

okay. can somebody find me a picture of any flower coming out the ground, preferably out of rubbish or rocks or some dead looking thing like that...where the flower is in color and the rest is black and white? you'd think that's an easy photo op and it'd be on the internet somewhere but i can't find it. help! thanks

Need a specific flower picture!?
Using someone else's picture from the Internet could cause problems, why not just shoot it on a digital camera yourself ?


All you need is a low level shot of a fresh flower sitting in some rocks or trash against an uncluttered background. Use an image editing program to select and isolate the flower then convert the rest to grayscale.
Reply:Here's one... that sorta fits... I will keep looking though... just give me a minute or two.

What do the Twilight titles and pictures mean?

do the titles mean anything? the pictures? i have a good guess on the picture but idk about the titles. like Breaking Dawn, Midnight Sun, and the recent, already out books. i know what the apple means and i have a good guess on the flower: like "she loves me; she loves me not" but what are your guesses?

What do the Twilight titles and pictures mean?
Twilight.





As the person above me said, Twilight's apple is standing for the forbidden fruit. This is the only cover Stephanie got to pick. The meaning I think of the actual Title is basically twilight. twilight is the end of a new day, and basically this book is the end of Bella's truly human life. This is what i think.





New Moon





As people above me said, the flower was picked because the publishers. I love your idea, it is very practical. The actual title i think means as others said, the dark part of her life, or the darkest part of the moon cycle. I also think that edward is her light, and since there is no light in a new moon this would make sense. Again just a guess.





Eclipse


Again Steph had no control over what they put on her cover. But I think it is the ribbon being torn apart because, she is torn apart by picking between the two loves. One half is her love for Jacob the other Edward. This is again a theory. And for the title. This I think is almost like how her "sun" Jacob covers the moon, Edward. She has to pick between these two and when she does the other moves away, but another thing I think is they are both very strong and you need both of them to make an eclipse (referring to Sun and moon/ Edward Jacob) but you can't have an eclpise for to long eventually one of them has to go away.





All theories but I hope I helped. Major Twi fan!!!





EDIT::


Sorry about repeating forbidden fruit, didn't read it.


anyway i think breaking Dawn is going to be like the sun is coming up and it is a start of a new day, and this will be the start of Bella's new life. This is also the only one that doesn't have anything dark in it so it might not be such darker times





and Midnight Sun


This is another thing that would describe Twilight in another way. It is just another way of saying Twilight, because the book is another way of telling what already happened but in a different way.
Reply:the apple represents the fruit of the evil tree in the Garden of Eden
Reply:I'm pretty sure that the cover of "Twilight" represents temptation.





Eve is tempting Adam with the apple.


Bella is tempting Edward with her blood.





I hope Edward doesn't give in like Adam did....
Reply:Twilight- The apple on the cover of Twilight represents "forbidden fruit." Stephenie used the scripture from Genesis. You know... the bible?





New Moon- The flower is a tulip (just ruffled). The apple cover has a lot of meaning to Stephenie, but she did not pick the New Moon cover.





Eclipse- The cover wasn't choses by Steph, but by publishers.
Reply:I don't like Twilight that much to be honest. But meh.





The titles are all somehow incorporated into the books. For example, in the first book, Twilight, Bella (or Edward, I don't remember anymore) mentions how it's twilight when they are outside after the prom.





Twilight sometimes is viewed as a time where night and day are one, the 'transition time' from light to dark. I guess it could represent Bella wanting to change from a human to a vampire (but I wouldn't look too deeply into it).





I guess Meyer wanted to keep the theme of astrology for the rest of it, but otherwise, I have no idea.
Reply:Hmm, I feel Twiliight is the title of the first book because, it's the beginning of the end of Bella's human life. New Moon, because when there is a new moon, there is no moon, no light to guide us through the darkness. Eclipse, because Bella is struggling to choose one over the other, and the love for one eclipses the love of the other, covers it until it's not visible.


The apple for the Adam and Eve thing. The flower, I never really thought of it, but I like your thought. The ribbon, I have absolutely no clue, at all.
Reply:i guess i think an apple is a fruit


and the other ones are lik times of day
Reply:well, on the first book, i think your right forbidden fruit. On the second book i would say that the title new moon kinda means a change. After edward left bella, she was broken inside and then her and jacob started hanging out and formed a strong bond, but the moon is still the moon so she loves edward more so after she found out the was going to provoke the head vamps to kill him, she saved him. the third book is called eclips. The picture (to me) is a symobol of bellas love. its torn, because she loves edward and jacob. i remember that Jacob said that he could deal with the clouds, but he couldnt fight an eclips. so thats what i think.
Reply:me and my friends were talking about this and a guess we had was that like its kind of a night cycle.


+Twilight


+New moon


+Eclipse


+Breaking Dawn


haha.


idk.


it kinda works.


and the titles are mentioned in each book.

How can I take wildflowers from the road, and put them in a flower bed?

There is about 15 different kinds of wildflowers that grow along my road, but my road is a dirt road so they get really dusty. i already took 12 wild roses but they are all in shock, but they will be ok next year. How can I take these other wildflowers and plant them in my flower bed? Just to name a few of the flowers, there are daisys, black eyed susans, fire weed, flowering maple, and this one type of small purple vine that looks like a mini wisteria. how can i do it, and make sure they are ok? oh, and its ok if its illegal, this is a dirt road that only gets about 20 cars a day. i tried to plant wildflowers from seed, and only about 5 small types of flowers came up, not the ones that were in the picture. it was the biggest waste of money i ever spent. oh, and one more question, is there any type of wildflower seed packets (or miracle gro stuff) that has many big flowers come up like snapdragons and is very full and colourful?

Dan,


Stop and think for a moment about your actions. Is it illegal? Yes!! Private property calls it invasion and theft.


Public Property brings Criminal Charges against you!


First a real Wildflower Bed needs development and plannning. Set aside an area you wish to have as such a garden in your yard. Make the proper provisions, such as the soil, irrigation availability, and a border to keep the plants in place. Wildflowers are really weeds that will take over if not contained my friend!


With the planning, backfill with any dirt you can and some compost or manure your set to go. Again, confine the area with either a stone or timber wall no less than three foot tall and make it a full surround. After planning and executing that project examine your real purpose.


Do I want a true wildflower garden or a garden I can be proud of and tend? I believe the later to be more true. Set the garden to be receptive to any planting this fall. Spend the time between then and spring to put a plan on paper. Make a gradious plan with a Specimen Tree surrounded by rare plants. Then get real and plan a garden that reflects your obvious goal of color through the season.


There are so many plants and so many zones in this country that plants can grow in. Write me back for the zone you are in. I am at gjgjobs@yahoo.com and welcome such a challenge.


I, after reading your post, would suggest making a raised bed using whatever is available to you. The plants I would use would be a Center Plant of Yucca, a background of Gereniums and a front of Midlandier Roses. All are cheap and available at any Nursery. Beats the hell out of trying to save monies and the bed will continue for years!





Good Luck. I am at gjgjobs@yahoo.com
Reply:No, it's not ok ..... it is illegal!





Most wild plants will die when moved and transplanted, believe me, I've tried many, many times with no success! Some of the plants you listed can easily be grown from seed or plants purchased at a nursery. Black Eyed Susan's only need to be planted once since they self propagate very easily. Those wildflower seed packets are usually not good and will contain more weed seeds than real flower seeds like you are wanting. You could make your own mixture of seeds. Buy packets of seeds that you like, mix them together and plant!
Reply:I would just dig them up and transplant them immediately. I would probably wait until closer to fall. You can enjoy them next year.
Reply:Quite apart from whether it is or is not legal, wild flowers are notoriously difficult to transplant I think. Cowslips, for example, will quite happily live in lawns or roadside verges, but won't survive in flower borders!
Reply:wildflowers are very difficult to translplant if not impossible for some climates. i would cut the tops or seed bearing areas and save them to plant next year....you'll have a nice suprise in the spring.
