Sunday Stills - Animals in Black & White

I almost skipped this again, but I needed a break from worrying about Ramsey and the horrible howling wind, snow and arctic temperatures that roared in this morning.  So much for our lovely Fall weather, it was short, but very sweet.  We miss it already.

I ventured into my Photoshop program for this, which I am only barely getting the hang of.  I guess it will take more then the five minutes per month I have devoted to it to actually figure it out.  It's on the list......Meanwhile, I actually found this to be surprisingly easy and kind of interesting.  These are all from my recent archives, most of you will probably recognize the shots.

Time now to go medicate and walk the donkey one last time before bed.  Enjoy and let me know what you think...

  8. Love the Tanner shot. Many ways to interpret it: I like, "whenever you're ready to play with ME, I'm right here".

  9. Great series. This challenge pushed me into finally trying to figure out a few things in photoshop too. :-)

  10. Beautiful shots. I tracked back in your blogs until I found out what happened to Ramsey. So glad he is home and doing well. There is something to be said about the friends you make when you are blogging. They certainly have been generous in helping you with your Cornell bill. Do you live near there?

    1. Hi Lori,
      This blogging experience has indeed been amazing. Cornell is only about 45 miles from here as the crow flies. However, the path between us is treacherous. In perfect weather, it takes about 1 1/2 hours to get there. In weather like we are having now, well you'd have to be pretty darn desperate to try it with a trailer.
