Milk has proved harder than I thought it would be. I got these two tonight.

    I honestly like #1 as an initial attmept.. I dont like the shadow though :( but the subject is nice... just a thought... maybe a closer shot with more of a frontal POV?? Who knows.. I'm not very good at these but I think that would be a very eye-pleasing angle

    Thanks, I half heartedly tried to take out the shadow... but I was to tired to work that hard around the ear. The glass would be easy. I may see if he will cooperate tomorrow in better light.

    I went in and worked on the cat picture. Any better? I'm not sure he will cooperate again. ne_nau.gif

    I do like the second version. Is it Milk-guerita time?

    When you come to a door... walk through it.
    If it's locked... find an open window.

    In the second version I would keep the milk white though.

    nod.gif yes, I thought it looked a little dark there too. I processed the B&W different and didn't realize until later. I didn't save before that and I had done some touch up I liked and don't want to spend time on again. I think I was able to fix it up some in the version I put in the gallery.

    I edited and posted the newest version in gallery and above along side the first one entered. (So, I could see if the milk really was any whiter rolleyes1.gif) I can't what's white and what isn't at this point. I have worked on this too much the past few days.
