My Cat And A Black Background

Dennis

I have chosen one of my cat photos and loaded it with Photoshop. I wanted to get rid of the background behind my cat Shyna.

I am not sure how much people would like to learn cooking German dishes but it could be a blog with a good purpose. I … Continue reading Potatoes, Cucumber, String Beans And Fried Eggs
