Re: PAW PESO - A Simple Cat
It was a project for my niece ... of course it can be done other ways. I can think of several options right off the bat, but there was neither the time nor the need to use other techniques. All I had time for was a few quick snaps with the digi camera and then a fiddle in PS. I don't care that it looks like it is a result of PS ... that is precisely the look that my niece wanted so she could take the results and do what she needed to do for her project.

Re: PAW PESO - A Simple Cat
Hi! My cat Buddy... My buddy, the cat. Made this for a project for my niece. She and my Sis and a few others liked it. http://home.earthlink.net/~pdml-pics/buddybg.html Shel, I've read your response to Frank's question as to how this was obtained. Nonetheless, today when PS is everywhere it looks like it was PSed. Again, I don't mean that as a critique, just mere statement of the fact. I wonder if you could've done something similar but in such a way that somehow it would be rather *obvious* that this is not a pos-processed photo. Again, I don't mean that as a critique but rather as a suggestion if you're going to keep playing with this. Hope I make sense to you. Boris
Re: PAW PESO - A Simple Cat
Hi Frank ... this is the original, pretty much straight from the camera except for a little trimmed from the left side. http://home.earthlink.net/~pdml-pics/dsc07705.jpg I suppose the answers to your questions are qualified yes, yes, and yes. Unfortunately, my masking techniques are virtually non-existent, so while the result is fine for its purpose, I'd like to have been able to preserve some more fine detail in the fur ... but Eisman's book on masking is coming up and maybe it'll help a bit. I used a rather clumsy, heavy handed technique in doing this, but I'm just learning. Shel > [Original Message] > From: frank theriault > > Made this for a project for my niece.

And, I mean that as a compliment. Tell me, is it a "true silhouette"? By that, I mean was it shot like that, or is the silhouette a result of post-processing or photoshopping? Either way, it makes no difference to me in terms of the quality of the image - it is what it is, no matter how arrived at.
