The sun was out and I noticed the shadow created from the carving I had made of a woman diver.
Taking it outside on the patio I moved it around until the shadow became similar to a big cat.Placed on the diagonal to make the movement a little more dynamic.
Cropped slightly, levels enhanced to reate a gritty effect,contrast to make the shadow darker.

the light was too much distracting the eye,so I started with curves tool.and used neat image afterwards for the noise.the shadow was the main point in my opinion,so I tried to emphasize it and eleminated other details by similarizing the colors.played with selective colors tool on green and red;I used shadows and highlight tools,applied sepia filter twice.I used bug eye and 28 mm.focal length lenses ;fog masked and 3D framed as a last step.
