The original photograph was taken by my father (a photographer by passion and trade). I took it and edited it some. A print of it was sold at a local show, so I guess it is ok! I am still a novice at computer printmaking. I prefer the more traditional etching (intaglio), but I am learning every day with photoshop!

This is really fun and interesting! If Extraterrestrials are dog-like, will you please ask them to come tell my dogs that it is now Daylight Savings Time and they are NOT HUNGRY yet? Seriously, while I like the flourescent feel to this pic, I think I may be partial to the blue, green, yellow version I see in your ID tag. Is that one ok for uploading also?

Haha! I am with your dogs! I do have the blue verson for upload. Funny thing is that this one sold more than the blue one. Sometimes I look at one and change my mind on which one I like better. I will upload the blue one so you can decide.

I like this image I'm not sure if you did this in p shop but more of a mask blending on the dog i think would make this photo pop background very good.

Although this is more 'extraterrestrial, I think I prefer the blue one. Somehow... it's more doggy.

Looks like he has only just landed! Give him an hour or two and he will turn into a normal dog and speak the language. But seriously, I like the idea of the ET Dog.

If practice makes perfect and nobody is perfect, then why practice?
