New Pet Portrait

A new project to do today..... a small pet portrait. This will be a challenge due to the quality of the only photograph they have of the two dogs, but I'll give it my best shot :-)
This is the photo I'll be working from.

Some random shots along the water outside my apartment building. Still waiting for that elusive manatee shot. I'm told there are also sightings of dolphins from time to time.
When the tide goes out the miniature crabs come out by the hundreds.They have only one claw. Wonder if these guys get full size? yummy!
We've been getting a LOT of rain lately...these guys are enormous.
