:tinysmile_shy_t: "This past summer my wife Sue and I went hiking in the Rockies in search of a Lewis Woodpecker (check out my blog below for photos), we ran into a Sasquatch, not a big thing. I guess everyone has.
We hiked together for a while then he had to leave but wanted to get a photo (for some reason we really bonded), before he ran off. I asked him to send me a copy" :tinysmile_shy_t:
Seriously this is an image taken by my wife, it is at the entrance of a housing development in the Okanagan Valley of BC. Each housing area has a statue at the entrance of some animal. Taken with a point and shoot in very low light, I brought out as much detail as I could. Then I used toy camera effect from Topaz Lens Effects and Fotosketcher.
Lots of copying, pasting, background changing to create this image, Sasqutches are free spirits so I covered him up for the benefit of the children in here.
I really don't take myself very seriously...I just love working in Photoshop, just for the fun of it. Thats all this image is Fun

Thank for making me literally laugh out loud! The blacked out area is especially funny. I think you did a great job. I love photos that make me laugh, and am completely incapable of creating them myself. Many thanks.
