I'm Having An Affair............

With my camera!!! I am really loving this thing. I've taken more photos in these last few days than I have in months with my regular 35mm camera. I'll keep it but I'm putting it into retirement. Anyway, here's how Duke looked as I left for work this morning. http://www.boomspeed.com/dukedogsmom/smallsadduke.jpg
Poor thing. He just sits by the couch, flattens his ears and looks so sad. I hate leaving him.
I work in small town so on my lunch break today, I walked downtown and took some pictures. There used to be an antique store that had a beautiful mural painted on it. I can't believe but I guess they wanted downtown dressed up a little and they painted over it. So, I walked in the alley behind the store and found this: http://www.boomspeed.com/dukedogsmom/smalltownart.jpg
Isn't that neat? It says "The night they burned old dixie down" I don't know what the significance of that is.
And finally, it had been raining after work and this is what I saw when I got out. I waited until I got out of town so I could get a pic without wires, etc.

Wonderful pictures. I know what you mean about the camera, I'm obsessed!:D:o Take some more!:D

I just love the rainbow picture! :)

My digital camera sorta "burned" up. I really miss it. I really need to get another one, hopefully, I will be able to soon!:)

Duke sure looks like he's missing his mommy:( I'll bet that face really tugs on your heartstrings when you leave! Great pics! I can see both rainbows...and I love the mural! Those cameras sure can be addicting.

I think you wanted to know how to reposition your sig. pics?? Well, hmmm, hard to explain (for me at least!:rolleyes:) but, it depends on how you postion, sequence the pictures addresses in your sig. box. Try playing around with their sequences, positions in the "signature box" in your profile...not sure if that's any help...hopefully someone else will chime in!:) Keep posting those pics!

Thanks! Now if I can just figure out how to get them side by side............

Duke looks like he is thinking, Hmmmmm I wonder when Mom will be back home. He is such a handsome fellow. You are getting some wonderful shots of him, and the Rainbow is just beautiful.
Thanks for sharing.

Don't you just love those cameras? I know I love mine, I'd be lost without it!
Loved your pics....expecially Duke:)

I have GOT to get a digital camera... Rick and I took the pups down to the river this weekend for the first time and they had fun!! I could have had some goofy pictures of them!!!

(sigh).. one day......

Duke.....don't look so sad honey!!! Mommy always comes back!!

Lovely pictures!:) Especially the one of Duke, even if he does look a little sad! :D

I have put your three pictures side by side in two ways, here is the first....

Feel free to accept, or reject, either or both.:D

.....second

Thanks Chris! How do you do that, by the way? Can you copy/paste in the paint part and then change it to a jpg?

I was playing around at work today and worked a while on erasing all around Duke and then filling in background. Here is what I got:

Not too bad for an amateur, huh? I need to find out how to insert things into the picture while you're editing it, such as his name so I won't have to do it in the paint application. Thanks to everyone for all their effort in helping me.

The pictures are all great! Of course, I would be lying if I said that I loved any of them more than I loved Duke's pitiful picture!!! Poor baby!!!! :)

My husband and my daughter have digital cameras and I'm really trying to do better using them, especially now that I have learned to download the pictures!!! I am going to do better!!!!! :D

Keep those great pictures coming!!!! :)

Great pictures! Please keep them coming!
