Livermore Wine Country

Sometimes I am dragged out to go to Livermore wine country with my dad.  Not that I don't think that the scenery and atmosphere out there isn't beautiful, but I am much too young to taste the goods.   One winery that we usually go to is Concannon Winery because my dad is a member there.  The last time we went I brought along my trusty camera.  Many photo opportunities out there.

Concannon Winery has a beautiful old home sitting on its property.  It sits among the acres of awesome vineyards.  Below is one of the original shots I took of the house.

Concannon Vineyard House Among Vineyards - Original

  I took this shot and made some really beautiful works of art.  Take a look:

Concannon Vineyard Shot With Oil Painting Effect

This structure makes such a beautiful work of art.  Before I processed it, I took out the pole in the center of the shot with Photoshop.  I didn't notice the pole when I took the shot, but I felt it distracted from the shot.  Next, I applied a more colorful effect to the shot.  Below is the final result:

Lastly, the below conversion is my favorite.  It takes an ordinary shot and makes it look so different and artistic.  Take a look:

All these effects make my shot so different, and such unique pieces of art.  We can add the same effects to your original photos at www.simplyevansphotoart.com.  All our conversions are FREE!  Also, our canvas prices are the best on the web.  So visit us today. 

I Love Downtown Pleasanton, California

Okay, so I live in Pleasanton and go to high school here!  So I am a little partial to this town.  But I must admit, Pleasanton, California has one of the coolest downtown's I've ever seen.  Below is a recent photo I took of downtown Pleasanton right before I went to school the other day. 

Downtown Pleasanton - Original Photo

The thing I like about downtown Pleasanton is that it reminds of small-town America.  I have traveled all over the United States with my dad and seen a lot of small towns.  Pleasanton seems like one of those small, clean towns I have seen during our travels.  It always reminds of one of those small towns you would see in a magazine.  So I decided to take a picture and convert it into a work of art.  Below is my transformation of the above shot. 

Downtown Pleasanton Photo Converted Into Art

To me, this conversion makes the most perfect work of art for any home.  Even if you don't live in Pleasanton.  It just seems so "American."  So it shouldn't matter where you live.  It would look great mounted onto canvas and hanging in any home.  Visit my website at www.simplyevansphotoart.com.
