Welcome to Zoe's Photo (and Art) Blog


Hello, I am Zoe "Digital Midge" Marlowe, and I am 'revamping' this old blog of mine to reflect my interests in photography, digital photo manipulation, photo restoration, and Photoshop and Illustrator special effects for all things photographic. Now and then I will share with you some interesting tips and tricks for dealing with your digital photos, plus, I'll share digital photography tips with you. My credentials for being able to blog about this? I have an Associates Degree in General Studies with an emphasis in Commercial Photography, and I am also currently finishing my Bachelor's degree in Graphic Design. So, I do have some excellent qualifications in the area of photography and design. Now and then I will fly by the seat of my pants in regard to some photographic experimentation, but for the most part, I've tried out all the techniques I will share on this blog! I hope you enjoy the content, and I will try to post something new at least once or twice a week.

The Photo that is at the beginning of this post of the cup with music notes is an old photo that I shot with a manual 35mm camera using b/w TMAX 100 film. I hand processed the film and printed the print. I then scanned it into Adobe Photoshop and manipulated the image a little to make it look more like an artsy print. This is just one example of the amazing things that can be done with your photographs...regardless of the type, subject or media you want to use, the sky is the limit!
