Wonderful story & shots ... congrats on the achievements of your grandkids ... I suspect it says a lot about the way you & your wife raised your kids. Thanks for sharing.
Just got a video from our daughter who was at the auction for the rabbits. The three New Zealand Blacks sold for ........ $1,500.00!!!!! I guess the Grand Champion label and the fact that granddaughter was the smallest contestant made the bidding go 3 sigma. Grandson sold his pig (259 lbs) for $2,100!! Their additions to their college funds have started.
That's a feel good set. Looks like a lot of fun with some awards to bring home to boot.!

That goat photo is stunning Bill, how did you achieve that black background?

I changed the photo to B&W, then deselected some color on the sliders, and then played with the "Blend Mode" until most of it came out like you see. Then did the rest with "Clone" tool to complete the black background. Sometimes even a blind squirrel gets lucky.
Thanks so much for the info Bill. Oh, and I can’t imagine the pride you feel in those grandkids. You must be bursting.
