I love playing with my graphics programs. One of my favorite black and white pictures is a photograph of my husband and I, which I scanned, then in the photopaint program, chose psychedelic. It created a shadowed effect kind of like what you did, but in black and white. :)M
Oh, ok, I knew it looked familiar. Unfortunately for me, my lovely Cleo Cat would not deign to sit still in front of the laptop. Laying ON the keyboard, sure. Posing for the PhotoBooth, no way!
MARDI - you have no idea how many tries (and how many errors) Benjy and I went through before coming up with this shot. He just wouldn't stand still, would turn his head at the wrong moment always and I thought I would never get a "clean" shot... My trick: to hold his favorite ball right above the laptop so that he would look up and stare for a few seconds before leaping (onto the keyboard...)
Hallo Mary-Laure, thanks for visiting my blog and your kind words...it's always fun meeting "new" bloggers !! Been admiring your pictures and of- course the star of the day: Benjy :)!!!! We have the love for flowers in common i see :) Have a nice week, Groetjes, Janneke.
Did you go to the BeFunky website to do that? Great fun. A friend of mine took pictures of she and I, changed them on BeFunky and then posted our pictures on her blog! I think Benjy looks better. ;)

BETH - actually, I just used my Mac's Photo Booth software. I haven't heard about BeFunky but I should definitely check it out. It sounds fun, thanks for the tip.

I love Benjy! What magic did you apply to get those photos?
And does it very well! What's next Cristo? Rembrant? Hockney?
MARDI & ANNIE - I used my Mac's Photo Booth program, which allows you to take Warhol snapshots...
AMUSE ME - that sounds like fun! I'm hopeless with Photoshop and the like.
D MOLL - Ha! Maybe Benjy's light-filled, dramatic eyes would have inspired Caravaggio?
And I'd love for Cristo to wrap Benjy!
