New Toy

I have always loved Art but to my great regret, have no personal talent whatsoever. This is why I love computer programs that let me manipulate digital images. I have just acquired Serif's PhotoPlus 11. Last night, I took this photo of baby Wendy reaching for her Great Grandmother's hand.



Then I cropped the image to show just the hands touching.


The I played around with PhotoPlus and came up with this image, inspired of course by Michaelangelo. I will never be a genius of that sort, more's the pity, but with a computer I can begin to learn creativity. It is a satisfying hobby for me and as it is so absorbing, it keeps me out of mischief.
