I am going to let you answer this question – for yourself!

Doctor visits are not a form of recreation. They are a time for reflecting, praying, planning, and hoping for a good report.  At my last visit, I impinged  this photoPainting.

Today’s Photo Art traveled from my iPhone, to my brain, to my computer, to you. Enjoy!

As photographers we will see AI infiltrate our hobby at the speed of lightening. One of these photos taken out my kitchen window is real & one is not. What will AI do to our hobby in a few years?

Look at what Dave can do when he searches for the big birds – Dave has given us some wonderful C-130 photographs – He is an Outstanding photographer.

I WROTE:  I am enjoying every day here in NJ – hunting with bike and phone camera – My bird feeder is always active – nothing special – but always those birds that come are performers – sometime I need to use PhotoShop to show you what I saw because they fly off when I open the door to photograph them. 

Sometimes I  think about what fun art I should do with PhotoShop today.  But not with this photograph.  God did it just this way.  This is looking down Heather’s driveway yesterday!

Driving home last night my headlights caught this Photo Op. In New York these rules are followed:  Keep pets on leash,  do not stop on sidewalk.  That is how I can tell this fox is not from NY.

As my eyes saw Pond Heather at breakfast.

I used the original photo to create a Photo Painting of my horse training lessons. I trained a number of horses.  Now, I am learning how professionals train horses. I am loving it.  Making Photo Paintings of the lesson is fun too.
