It has been cold here and that is no Bull

That is not a bull.

That is a buffalo.

There is a buffalo farm just out of town and I stopped tonight to take a few pictures as the light was just getting good.

It was another cold cold day and I could see the buffalo’s breath.

I had to breath in and out at the same pace as the animal so I could get a picture of her breath.

These are big mean animals and this was a mom.

That fence began to look really flimsy when she powerfully ambled towards me.

I can take a hint.

I got back in the car and hit the road.

Then I photoshopped her at home:

OK.

So who’s the boss now, eh?

Habits

I got busy and got out of the habit of writing each night.

Time changed over the weekend and I guess now is the time to start anew.

I have been taking lots of photos and using Photoshop Elements 6 to alter them.

Ooooh-Whee !   Is it fun!

41Here is a photo I took of an old truck out in front of a house in the country that had an open studio tour last month.

I played with the green tones.

Her art was great – but not in my budget.

Wish that it was.

Here is a her website:   http://www.clarecarver.com/

Anyway – I liked her truck!

43I like her truck in lavender tones, too!

Here is a photo I took of my kid who was dressed as a mummy for Halloween.

38Again, I altered the colors and such and I am in love with this picture.

To me, it looks like the kid is walking through an apocalypse , when in reality  – it was he driveway of a suburban that was totally  decked out for Halloween.

It is fall and the leaves outside my office are so stunning this year!

Neato, eh?

It is hard to stop playing with these photos!

More.

Later.
