Close-up portrait of my gray cat, Silver. (Yes, that's really his name.)

Crop, minus black point, contrast, definition, levels, highlight/shadow, saturation, dodge/burn, spot touch-up, Noise Ninja.

Will probably get dinged for the dark areas at his nose and behind his whiskers appearing to be black, but they're really not solid black. Much more gray detail shows up there in Photoshop, and the histogram attests to lack of solid black and pure white, but when I save for web, that gray detail disappears.

Seems a bit too dark but truly grey.

This could easily be the Cat challenge :-) Sweet kitty, great fur detail, a bit underlit.
