I have been doing some Photoshop work for a fundraiser to benefit the sanctuary where I am a volunteer. The idea was to change the backgrounds on some of the pictures I have taken and the resulting pictures would be used in Christmas ornament photo frames and sold at an upcoming event. They aren't the greatest, but they will only be 1.125 inches in width, so a lot of detail will be lost anyway.

Thought I would share a couple with you. First is Monju singing Christmas carols.




Then Dante contemplating the world looking past the commercialism of the season.



I got a little whimsical while I was working on the one for the bear. She was the first resident of the sanctuary and the sanctuary is actually named after her. I thought Ursa Major was a good title for it. The constellation she is looking at is Ursa Major and she is the most important bear at the sanctuary.
