Birds of a Feather

Birds of a feather flock together, but these little guys had some bigger birds chasing them. It was a little crazy watching them fly around. They seemed to be playing with the winds at the beginning of a storm front that rolled through.

It is a little hard to see them, but in the picture below you can just make out the flock of birds in the darker clouds.

How to Title a Piece of Art or Image

Sometimes when I take a photo I can immediately imagine the photo on my blog with a great title over it. But I usually don't end up titling my own work. I think that the titles I come up with might be a little too cliche or abstract, or other times I find that they are way too bland. I stumbled upon this web site called The Abstract Art Titlegenerator that gives random suggestions for your work. I have had a blast clicking through. Below are my attempts to apply the title generator's tremendously random insight to some of my images:  

"Apparition of Reflecting Meditation"

"Hallucinagenic Memories of Inverse Feeling"

"Act Including Trancendental Metamorphosis"

I could have picked 10 different titles for each of these. Please check out the site, and keep clicking through those titles for inspiration.

Watermarks

I am having watermark issues. I know it is probably a little egocentric, but I like having a watermark on my photos. I had downloaded a great program, but didn't realize in all my naivety that of course I only downloaded the trial version. So for a small fee of $49.95 I can continue to add all the watermarks on my photos that my heart could ever desire. I, of course, being as cheap as I am have been searching and trying to find something that will work without spending the fifty bucks. I have not found anything as of yet... so I am throwing this out there: does anyone have any suggestions for free/cheap watermark software?
