Manipulated

This is a retouched shot I took last Friday before the halloween .We brought our youngest daughter and two of her friends to this roller coaster park and spent the day there . I know for the fact that I am not into rides ,and would be hell bored there . But I know it would leave me some guilt feelings if I would not go with them . There's always excuses to remain ,but what a boring mum i would be . Hubs doesn't mind either if I stayed . My kid wouldn't stay as a child longer,time flies by so fast and you realized whne they reached the teenage years ,they don't even want to be seen with mum and dad , they go to parties ,night out sleep overs , and most times with friend circles . This is what I've seen of my eldest ,I hardly see her during the school breaks now . I was hit with the nagging thoughts that if I don't go with them on this day trip , it will be another missed opportunity .

 

I took shots of the roller coasters rides they were on ,some human beings in costumes , and one of them was this guy in the werewolf . The idea to do a retouch came later on .

 

I played with the tools and get carried away with new discovered strokes by accident . Again you learn things by wantonly exploring and by trial and error ,no books or tutorials but just the basics . But I do look forward to take on simple course on digital graphics or photography in the near future .But finding a convenient time that fits in is a problem at the moment .
