Second Nature

With the incorporation of any human advancement, including technology, comes a learning curve. I remember watching adults using two hands while attempting to control the mouse on early Macintosh computers.

Today, however, I'm observing that touch screen technology is apparently second nature, even for kids at a very early age.

When stopping to reflect, we have always used our finger to point out what we believe to be important as we exclaimed, "Look there!" or "They went that way!" And, how many times do we observe fast food customers pointing at items on the menu boards before deciding on the final selection?


This totally iOS photo was taken on an iPhone and processed on the new iPad.

Superimpose was used to layer two photos, mask out some of the unwanted images, and blend the layers. I used ArtStudio to erase additional elements and add black to the background. In Glaze I added a paint filter. Next, back to ArtStudio to smudge and texture spray parts of the image. Finally, I used iPhoto to lighten parts of the photo.
