My 41 year old son played ball when he was young and now both of his sons play. I have always taken a lot of pics of the grandkids and was looking at some old prints the other day and found one of my sons at bat photos when he was about 15. I scanned it and looked through the grandkids shots and found similair ones and made this for his birthday. I know it is not great but I thought it might give some of you an idea to do something like it. My son told me it was the best gift I have ever given him.
Forgot to mention that the photo in the middle was the only one I could find of that grandson that looked like the others and there was someone knelling in my line of site so part of his left leg was cut off. I had to use the picture so I cloned his right leg and mirrored it and made the left leg. Looks pretty wierd but most people don't see it.
What a great idea. Definitely a perfect gift for your son.

Thank you. When I did it I asked a couple of friends if they could see anything wrong with the picture, I even told them to look at the legs and they still couldn't figure it out. One of those things that when you know it is there it sticks out terribly, probably should not have pointed it out but I didn't want anyone else to find it and tell me how crappy it was.
:D
