During this final week of Flash of Red I have posted a couple of reworked from the past photos and a couple of new to the project images. This one was taken today. I did not check the histogram before I shot it but did process it following the basic procedures I have previously mentioned. I increased the contrast by 50% which is usually too much but it seemed to give the exact effect I wanted without blowing out the whites. (actually they are blues and grays) of the porch and siding. Special thanks to the cat for a wonderful position and pose.
Very nice. The cat looks like she has just eaten the canary ;-) Nice that the cat would pose for you. Ours always walks my way when I point the camera at him.
First, congratulations on getting your photo to the PP!!! Very well deserved! Love the high key effect and how the kitty in B/W matches right along with everything else. Many times the shades of colors will show up in a B/W that don't really go well together. You processed this perfectly and made everything match!! Very well done and a beautiful Cat!! FAV!
