Raegan at the Rose festival this year. Needs something more, but I am done with it for now....

Football layout from pictures taken a couple years ago. I very much don't like it, but the pictures are on it and it is scrapbooked, so I will leave it for now....

These pictures could be on my hiking blog or here (actually, I put about half on each). Just showing my new conversion effect that converts pictures from color to black and white, or color improvements. You would not believe how much better these look than just removing color from a picture!!

My babies in a little photo shoot. The secret to photographing pets?--take pictures of them where THEY want to be. They love sitting on the dryer if there is a blanket or clothes up there, so I bought some fake fur and put it up as a backdrop and waited. In less than 5 minutes, they had to investigate, and since they love lying down on soft things (another trick--give them props/something that THEY like), they came over and cooperated. The hardest part is getting them to look at the camera. I put it on 10 second delay so my pushing the button wouldn't shake the camera, so I just counted down and made noises or waved a feather. Worked pretty well!
