Not even the boys' Magical sorcerer's hat could save the 49ers tonight, as the team served up another dismal loss, dropping to 2-5 on the season.

In fact, all three of my favorite teams are sitting at either 2-4 or 2-5.

I fear it's going to be a LONG football season.

Daily Dog Challenge 1451. "Back To The Future"

Spent WAY too long on this shot, using Flickr to tramp private copies back and forth between the desktop Mac, my iPhone, and my iPad (really need to get iCloud photos set up)

Specifically, images went from:

1. Nikon camera - where the image was taken. It started out looking at lot like this shot of Henry...

Henry
Henry: "I'm going, too!"



2. Desktop Mac (DM) - image imported into Lightroom, had basic processing done, then transferred to Photoshop Elements to mask it it off.

2. Flickr: image up to Flickr...

88 Miles Per Hour
Zachary: "I'm floating!"



3. iPad - ... then down to iPad. Hold that thought.

Meanwhile...

3. iPhone - A plain black image that I had stashed on Flickr was downloaded to my iPhone, where I added the lightening using the PhotoStudio App.

4. Flickr - Lightening image up to Flickr and then...

Lightening
Lightening


5. iPad - ... down to iPad, where it was merged with the main crate shot (#3) in the Procreate App and the "smoke clouds" was painted in (Procreate is an art app).

6. Flickr - image moved up to Flickr...

7. DM - ... and back down to the desktop Mac. At this point I realized the EXIF data had been stripped out. Rats. So...

8. DM - A copy of the original (#2) image was made in Lightroom and was opened in Photoshop Elements, where it was overwritten by the image from 7, this returning the EXIF data to the shot (I hope).

8. DM - back into Lightroom for a final crop and minor touch ups and then...

9. Flickr - up to Flickr one last time.

Zachary
Zachary: "Yay!"


Henry
Henry: "Peek-a-Boo"

Save The...

Save The...
Zachary: "October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month."
Henry: "Can dogs get Breast Cancer, Momma?"


Yes they can sweetie...


Save The...
(gulp)


.... although it's rare in boy dogs and girl dogs spayed while young.


Save The...
Henry: "Real Dogs wear pink, right Momma?"


Not a word, Zachary.

Not.

One.

Word.

October is Breast Cancer Awareness month - and yes, dogs can get it too.

Daily Dog Challenge 1450. "Think Pink"

The boys decided if Football Players could wear pink, so could they.

Not quite sure about the bra, but hey, it's for a good cause, right?
