I have to admit that I just could not resist! It's a very grey day, and Theodore is not at all keen on the flash. So, I had just the one chance to capture this fresh image that goes along with my fresh start.
Compose in camera, force flash, and snap!
Not a bad shot, but the ear of his favourite stuffed toy distracts from the whole. That's where a little judicious Photoshop work comes in. Isolate Theo's fur, reverse the selection, and carefully clone the back of his bed, even if that means reshaping the bed.
There: Image 2 shows the reshaped bed, the distraction gone and a new layer: the halo.
Add three layers of text and the poster is done

The story behind the poster? My wee old man had stolen the plastic bag of dry liver treats out of my purse, and eaten them all at a single sitting.
Yep: his halo is in dire need of maintenance
