Christmas Kitty

I really like this shot, but her eyes are no good :( do you know how to fix cat eyes like this? Please help :)
I am still such a newbie when it comes to photoshop stuff. but I wonder if curves would help take some of the glare off the eyes. do you shoot in raw

Pretty cat...I wonder if you could use the dodge/burn tool in photoshop to help with the eyes...

Very nice shot, cute cat. Does your processing software have a dodging tool? That would allow selective exposure compensation.

Beautiful shot of a beautiful cat. I'm not too good at processing.

She's beautiful. I wish I knew how to fix that, because I have that problem sometimes too.

Not sure how to fix that, they are too overexposed, I think, but if you have Photoshop, you could try to use the Burn-tool to make the eyes darker, or try and play with Shadows and highlights :-)

@niara - they look overexposed. I'm no expert, but I'd use maybe a quick mask (hot key Q) and paint over it in black (using the brush tool). Then after you are done, go into the layers pallet and click adjustment layer (looks like a b&w cookie). You could try using either the curves (as @andifree said) or exposure. If neither of those work, I would maybe try the saturation adjustment layer. You might be able to adjust the colors to something you find acceptable. I hope this helps.

@crappysailor Thanks a lot, Anthony, that's a real good piece of advice...I'll definitely try this out :)
