What Do You Think Of It So Far?

After just 48 hours, we let Bijou out of the dining room tonight. She is currently tearing round the house with her playmate Bubu

So, a relaxing Christmas ahead then!

I'd ask for two bottles this year if I were you!

 

[Paul Lange]

Maybe a tree with boubles will not be a good idea this year?

 

[Glenn Clabo]

Looks like trouble!

Man, that's some eye color Lesley - do they look like that in real life?

 

[Lesley Jones]

She's either tearing round, or fast asleep, so I'm not really sure. This was one of about three grab shots the other afternoon, but she really wanted to be head-down, padding her bed. Like Keith's kitten, Bijou is paler than she appears here. Even slight tonal contrast darkens the coat - if I can find something better to photograph her with, I'll try and match her colour a bit better

I pretty much stay away from Tonal Contrast (CEP I assume) on pet photos anymore - it tends to kill that soft, fluffy look of their coats. The last 2 images of Andee are a lot closer to her actual color, but still a bit darker. If you need to get a bit of contrast back, try CEP Pro Contrast rather than LR Clarity, an S-curve or CEP Tonal Contrast. It somehow manages to raise the midrange contrast without looking like you hammered it with Clarity or something. Quite handy and easy.

Cheers Keith! I'm off to give it a go now
