I've got some classics I swap between.
Clip, copy, crop, crank up the saturation, contrast and condiments ....and you have a nice desktop background.

Nothing pseudo about that. :-)
Photography like this is awesome. I have artist friends who do things like this with "found" art objects. Some will print onto large format metallic paper and frame it up for gallery shows. Do you have hi-res files for these?
Now this gets interesting.
There is very good support for artists of all sorts in my area. I am considering focusing on getting some better shots and working with them until I'm happy with them, and then putting them on high grade paper....in hopes I could get them into a gallery....or at least on my walls.
I was in Office Max yesterday and noticed for the first time....metallic paper (?). I'm not familiar with that. It was on sale for $9.99/25 shts-8x11 sheets (normally $24) and it was also buy one get one free. I didn't buy it. Should I have? I may go back today and get some to try.
I don't have high res of these images. They weren't hot well enough to be blown up.

Metallic paper can really pop the colors. You could try on small sheets and then source large format from professional photo labs, I think. I'll ask a friend about his sources.
You have a good eye for composition, and obviously a creative, artistic bent. Maybe a new direction for your life and hobbies!

Thank you for the compliments.
My past hobbies were filled with art and photography. I've had my cartoons/artwork published in news papers, shared, paid for, etc. I stopped when the kids came along and other hobbies took over....audio, and tubes.
I've collected more stereo pieces than I can possibly use and more tubes than I can possibly dispose of. I'm letting retiring in three years or less. At that time, I can really dig into photography and cartooning. I intend to hit up Hallmark again. They requested a portfolio many years ago.
Now that the kids are grown, and I got rid of the crappy bad cook.....it's a grand ol' time. Next, to get rid of the full time job.
