how they care for B...(taken with my phone)

    This is what I mean by the pugs filling in for Toots with B. They never let her snooze alone if they can help it. The back end of the big dog on the left is Jake. My Teddy Bear.
    There's a bit of Topaz applied here and it magnified the dirt particles on the mattress pad. This is their mattress, not mine..my bed is not quite this dirty!!! But, as any multiple dog owner will tell you, mud adheres to paws, gets tracked in and goes wherever they go. A fact of life.
    (I'm getting lazier and lazier about grabbing my camera...I tend to pull my new iphone out of my pocket, take a pic when I see it in front of me, e-mail the large size to my home PC and then pull it into PS elements there and play with it.

      Beautiful shot!!!!!!! I love that little black pug face in the center! I can't believe you did this with a phone!

      Re: dirt on the mattress pad--it doesn't detract from the picture at all, but if you want to get rid of it, select that section in PS, then inverse the selection, then go to Topaz. Topaz will show that it's processing the whole picture, but when you get it back into PS, only the dogs will be processed. If you still want to do something to the mattress pad in Topaz, just select it again, and go back to Topaz. Try using "exposure correction", and that will pop it without the detail of the dirt showing up.

      Duh! I do that all the time with other filters. THX..I don't mind it either..after all, the mattress pad is lived on!
