What About Bob?: Bluebonnets

Tuesday, May 4, 2010

This is what I do when I should be studying....

I make pretty pictures of Bob look prettier.... yay me! lol.

Ok, Before:

picture of Bob from the bluebonnet photos, he is sitting in a patch of bluebonnets and looking at the camera with his mouth slightly open, from this you can tell it was kind of cloudy and none of the colors are really sharp.

and After:

The same picture of Bob from above except the flowers and colors all look brighter, there is also a very low fade to black that makes a very subtle circle around Bob, I also took off the tag that was sticking out of Bob's jacket, covered it up with fur lol.

lol. My first time working with photo editing software (besides cropping and my blog titles) What do you think?! Is it too much or just right?

Bluebonnets and Facebook Pics.

Ok so now on to the bluebonnets. For those of you who might not know, the bluebonnet is the state flower of Texas; so when they start to bloom (around now) EVERYONE has to take pictures in them. lol. Seriously, I don't think there is a family in Texas who doesn't have their kids in their Easter clothes sitting in a big patch of bluebonnets. People even stop on the side of the highway (where other cars are going 70 mph) to take pictures in the huge patches that grow on the side of the road. Well, since I don't have kids - just a dog why not go and join the fad myself with him. lol. However I wasn't about to stop on the side of a highway to get a good picture of him so I walked a trail thats right down the street.. The flowers aren't as consistent there but there are some nice cacti around so I was happy. It makes it more Texan that way lol. So, here are some of the pictures we took.

P.S. it was super humid that day so Bob (and myself) got hot and tired really fast thats why there aren't very many pictures.

Bob sitting sideways to me in some gravel and bluebonnets around

Not too many bluebonnets around here :/

Bob sitting in some new bluebonnets, there is a tree behind him and he's looking off to his front, which is away from the camera because I had him sitting sideways.

There were a few more here - look at me Bob!

Bob sitting in the same bluebonnets from before with a tree behind him, his mouth is open in a pant.

Good Boy - now shut your mouth lol. He was getting
a little hot at this point.

Bob walking beside me (I'm holding the camera) you can see how long, skinny and lanky he is from this picture

Lets head back to the car then :)

Bob walking up to the passenger side door border

Found the car!

Bob sitting on the floor of the front passenger seat, he is facing straight back and his head is facing me, he has his mouth open and tongue hanging out.

Lol. Bob was so tired he jumped in the car before I even
had a chance to take his jacket off.

I think I like that last face for Bob's Painting lol.

As for the Facebook pictures - I noticed I don't have too many pictures of Bob working on the blog; all the ones of him working are taken on my phone - which I just upload to Facebook. So, if you would like to check out any of his 'working' pictures feel free to click his picture up in the top left corner of my blog. It will take you to the photo album I have on FB. Ignore all the other random pictures that don't pertain to Bob lol I think there is one in there of some cake I made last week (really yummy cake lol). Anyways, hope you enjoy - let me know if there is something wrong with the album. It should update every time I add new pictures to it. :)
