[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This is one of the first shots I made with my first ever owned camera the Kodak DX6490.

It shows my parents cat "Tapsi".

I used again several filters in PS6 where I don't know the names as I have a german version.
The original before postprocessing is to be found as a workshop.

great work you have done here Jan I like PS work it a shame you can't understand what some of the filters, I'd be curious.

Too much effects. Nice cat. I think you lost the balance to enhance or take away from the subject or from the quality. I think you framed and caught your picture very well, so rely on your self, do not employ to much magic :-)

A very artistic experiment !
I like it and think, this cat
is a very sweet one, is it ?
Really well done, Jan !

I like how Tapsi looks almost golden and as is floating in space after your post-work, Jan. Quite a difference and - as I'd consider it - improvement over the original version. Well done.

The original version is nice, but you made better work with your PP work. It looks real and un-real at the same time. Great job, Jan.

the title explains everything, very nice shot Jan! your post processing transformed it to a tiger :)

Another very artistic shot from you, Jan. You have created an interesting affect with your post-processing work. Yitzhak describes it best when he says "real and un-real". The eye is very real, as is the back. Well done.

excellent posting torben! I am amazed by your technique! wow! i wish I was just as good;-)) Maybe one day!
