Photoshop Magic

I have never been one to manipulate photos that much in photo shop other than HDR work. I have finally gotten out and did some photography, shooting flowers. After looking at the images they looked just like the flowers I shoot in previous years, nothing new. So into Photoshop I when to try some layer blending magic and this is what I ended up with, which I like and does not look like previous years image.

Greyhounds as Companions

Greyhounds as Companions is the adoption group that we adopted Leslie from and the third Saturday they do Meet and Greats at the PetSmart in Glenmont, NY. We have been attending these since getting Leslie allowing her to socialize with other greyhounds and be ambassador for greyhound adoption. This past Saturday I took my camera to document some of the action.

This is Freddy who was just rescued all the way from Guam, looking really good after a long flight that I would not even make in first class.


Freddy and Memphis both rescued from Guam.


And this is Leslie relaxing on the sofa after a hard day of Meeting and Greeting.
