Old pencil drawing of a giraffe

Here is an old pencil drawing from several years back. It was taken from a photo of mine of a giraffe in Silver Springs, FL that posed for a good 30 seconds with this big ass smile, and then proceeded to reach out and lick the lens of my Minolta 700si at the time. Kind of gross, but he/she was still a pretty cool ass giraffe. I’d have to say this is the coolest giraffe I’ve met.

Here was the photo (before it licked the lens) that was used for inspiration:

Photoshop Tips & Tricks

Don’t forget that you can change the keyboard shortcuts in Adobe Photoshop under Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts. Being that Adobe thinks its funny to change certain shortcuts every version release, at least they allow you to change it ‘back’ to what you were used to, if need be. That’s so nice of them, they are real sweethearts.
