Here are the steps I took to turn this regular photo of a horse figurine, framed by my dog’s legs, into a stylized image comprising of gold outlines on a black background using a couple of photo apps. :)
The step-by-step guide follows:

Close up dog photography. Photo taken with iPhone in colour, edited in Snapseed for black and white effect.
I’m under the weather today and spent the whole day in bed. I’m lucky my mother and brother dropped by so I got hot food and Donna still got her daily walk and loo breaks! Mr P is in Tokyo, lucky him!
My Best Photo of the Week (MBPOTW) – week 13
An unexpected moment when Donna decided that she would perform her wave, repeatedly, to con Mr P of his burger. I didn’t know how long she was going to keep at the begging dog act, so I had to take the picture from where I was sitting. I was glad that I could capture her expression, actions and also the food she was interested in. Mr P’s arm in the foreground is kind of distracting but this is the best shot out of the few I snapped. I had to put that line of text to balance the picture, without it, there’s just too much empty space.
Why is it that the dog always thinks that we should give up our food to her. Humans get hungry too, you know.
No love lost between this two!
Newsflash: A re-homed local mongrel dog has been caught on camera abandoning her pre-loved toy bear. Donna the local mongrel refused to share her bed with the teddy bear, so much so that she was willing to give up the bed to the bear. When asked why she thought the bear too repulsive to be near, Donna replied that she couldn’t sleep with the bear there and the human clicking away on her phone camera on the other end. The human cannot be reached for comment.
Look at me!!! Look at me!! I can haz moustache too! XD
Heading into the dark side
Just an exercise to make the lines more obtrusive to the eye than the subject.
I took a picture which I thought was ideal for the theme of lines, but the resulting image ended up sub-optimal in the brightness and clarity. Here is how mobile photo editing “saved” the picture and gave it a different life as an abstract image.
Following the tutorial, I also have more photographs of the same subject from different POVs ;)
