Pixlr-O-Meter Sheldon

I just downloaded a new program for my Mac that I've had on my iPhone4s in app form for a while and wanted to give it a try. I went to my Go-To model, Sheldon. It's actually an old cell photo that I just browsed through and clicked. It turned out ok, though. Kinda retro, which is the point of the software. It will come in handy for blogging when you don't have time to use Photoshop.

If you'd like to have it, too, here is the link: Pixlr-O-Meter 

Male Model

I tried to keep it even with the postings between Sheldon and Penny. The truth is, though, I get more shots of Sheldon. Penny goes out in the back yard to play and potty whereas Sheldon has to be leashed because he can get under the fence. He's a small fellow. So I spend a lot of time with Sheldon outside. Also, Penny is an older girl and spends less time awake and playing than Sheldon. Also, I try my best to get all the photos of Sheldon while he's in his puppy-hood just like I did when Penny was this size. So, I hope the readers of this blog don't think I'm picking favorites when Sheldon shows up more frequently than PenPen.  It may be that way for a while until he gets to be a little lazier and gets to be full grown. Make sense?

Okay, so in the earlier post I told you that Sheldon was going in tomorrow to get neutered. Which means, Mommy can't think of anything else. So, since the little man is on my mind I'm looking at photos while he's snoozing on the couch. What does that mean? New photo post!

Taken outside last week as we watched the very last launch of the Discovery Shuttle.

This one was taken week before last. It didn't turn out as nice as I was hoping, but I just really liked the photo, so I played with it in Photoshop to make it a little better. The legs belong to Joel, by the way.

Photogenic Pups

I brought out the ole Nikon D70 today to do an exercise out of Understanding Exposure for my photography group. It's the first exercise in the book. I asked Joel to stand with Sheldon and also took some of just Sheldon. All were taken with my 50mm lens @ f/5.6 in a shady area of the yard.

And here are just some shots I also took of the pups with the D70, but these are taken using Auto. I was shooting from odd angles, so I just held the camera up in the air or out in front of them and let the camera do the work.
