Good'un KC, I really like that shot of Gran, and the little titchy foal, nice and bright. About time we had some colour. ;D

It's the first time I have used that frame Nocky, I clicked on it by accident and liked it. In my frame selection, I've got more crap than decent ones and its a chore to go through and check them all out. I will have to make a bit more of an effort.
I need to do a bit more surgery on Rose. Having made her from a BW photo, I have a job to make her look right in some photos. I need to work on her face so it will fit in anywhere. Getting there slowly but surely.
You certainly got some colour into that one, nearly took my eyeballs out.

That's a nice effect Elvis. My eyes are still aching after that last effort too KC, so in total contrast,here's one I did with my dark glasses on.

A nice sepia print there Elvis, pity you had that accident with your coffee. That really is a cracking frame KC, I like it a lot.

Wet and windy today, so I'm stuck indoors trying to pass the time usefully. LoL ;D Here's a couple of imaginary night shots. and how the Aurora Borealis might have looked on Dartmoor, if it hadn't been raining last night. ;D

That's a cracker Angel, well set out, lovely colours,and lots to look at, as usual. I like that one a lot. This is a kinda fractal effect. ;D

Thanks Angel. I've been having another go at colour popping with a different filter. ;D

That's clever KC, and there are plenty of buzzards on Dartmoor too. Good work. Back to a painty kinda thing here. ;D

Thanks Nocky. I thought there had to be buzzards there Nocky, I used to see them on Bodmin Moor back in 1969. I believe they are on the increase again now after a steady decline, I think the Italians were making pizzas out of them. I saw some in Surrey, when I was last down there. I used to see lots in Surrey when I was a kid.

Looks like the foal has nipped round the back of the tractor to scoff some of that load of hay Angel, and the big cat is eyeing up the penguins with a hungry look in it's eye. ;D Great stuff, I like it. That could be an actual Dartmoor Tor in the background Elvis, good effect. Here, I've created a totally abstract piccy, I think you just might be able to make out the foals outline. ;D

Oh dear! what have you done to the poor wee beastie now KC? Two heads and three legs Well at least it's got a leg at each corner so it shouldn't fall over too often. ;D Angel, the plugin is called Fractalius, and I got it with a bundle of freebie and trial Photoshop plugins from a company called Redfield. If I decide to keep it, it will cost me $40. I think the pic looks better this way round. ;D

Did you see the lamb in China today Nocky, with no back legs??? The farmer said it was walking around on its front legs the day after it was born. He says it doesn't seem tto realise it's supposed to have 2 more legs and it follows him around all the time. He's bottle fed it and I suppose it thinks he's it's mum.

Yes, I saw that Ken, and there was a vid of a little dog on the 'net a while back only had 2 front legs,but was running around like a two year old, ain't nature wonderful. ;D Here's how that pic looked before I used the filter Angel, I was attempting a night vision shot originally.

It's cruel to keep a foal in an aquarium without an oxygenation pump Nocky.

Being out in a Dartmoor rainstorm is almost like being undewater KC, I think these ponies are born with gills and webbed hooves anyway. Now that is what I call a page curl Elvis, any bigger and we'd be looking at the back of the piccy. ;D
