Dazzle's tail continues to improve- to the point that I felt ok posting a progress photo without worrying too much about someone losing their lunch. Though it is still pretty ugly. You can see it here:

For the 52 weeks for dogs group, I took Dazzle to Bass Pro Shops where they always have an excellent Santa and photo scene. Other than wishing I had used a flash for a bit more fill light, I'm very happy with how this came out.

For the group that's for photos of NOT dogs, and my "inspired" collection, I chose a fancy glass and food coloring effect. I actually like my shot better than the original for a change :-)
