Art Creations Friday - Background

Thanks to Art Creations Friday for another lovely background. I love the colours in this one. The photo is of my mother and her dog "Major". He must have been a huge animal as he is bigger than her, at age 12. This is not trick photography!! I have extracted the two of them from one photo.

  21. This is fantastic, Marie. My guess is he's a mastiff. Major certainly looks like a trusted friend.
