Portrait of Eek [Contest Finalists July 2005]
Uploaded: July 14, 2005 09:29:41
I loved this plain close up of our Eek kitty, but wanted to "jazz it up", so I tried various filters & decided on the Fresco in PS7.
Manual settings and no flash.

Thank you Linda, Kerby, & Laurence!! :0) By using the fresco filter it did take away from some of the awesome patterns in his eyes, so glad that you still find them neat looking! :0) Nice to hear from you! :0) #1592598Terry L. Ellis July 14, 2005
