This week we have a change of pace — a guest photographer, Johnny (my step-grandson), took photos of ZooLights, a light show at the Phoenix Zoo each Christmas holiday season. Note that night photography is a big challenge for any photographer, but he did quite well. And as a result, I will not comment on most of his photos — and he is too busy with attending ASU to do so for us. So just sit back and enjoy his work.












(B. David's comments) This photo that Johnny took originally showed a wide concrete pathway in front of the lights outlining various animals and plants. So I decided to experiment with a new AI feature (artificial intelligence) in Photoshop. I first made an outline of that pathway, then told Photoshop to overlay it with a night photo of a lake. What you see was the result — I did not have to do anything to add the reflections on the surface of the water — Photoshop did it all by itself. Amazing!


To be continued...

Life is good.

Aloha,
B. David
