Challenge: Single Light Source III (Basic Editing)
Collection: Challenges
Camera: Canon EOS-5D
Lens: Canon EF 24-105mm f/4.0L IS
Date: Nov 5, 2007
Date Uploaded: Nov 5, 2007

 Single light source to the left and above the cat. Post processing included conversion from RAW, crop, sharpen, reduce noise, adjust shadows/highlights, sharpen, save for web.

I know it is not dramatic light...but she is too quick to set up something different.

I think the image lacks a certain appeal of creativness....so I am predicting a possible 6.0.

Lovely cat! Nice job to get catchlights in both eyes but have the face partly shadowed.

A lovely shot, great sharpness on the eyes, good DOF, clean background, good composition. Perhaps could have pushes the saturation a little

Beautiful kitty! This is very nicely done. You nailed it. I can see the single light in her eyes. :)

Excellent pet portrait! This one is certainly well executed and worthy of printing and framing :) As a pet owner, I have a nice collection of prints of my faithful companion also :)
