Furry Friday

Anniversary Flowers

They’ve faded a bit, as Sweetie gave them to me last Saturday, but they seemed a fitting subject for practice with my 10° grid last night. I added our cake topper to the mix, a little rim light to the left, and here you go…

My wedding bouquet had lilies just like these.

Favors from our wedding and a special hand-thrown gift from a long-time family friend to commemorate our happy day.

Soft window light

The bay window provides me with lovely light. Shot at 1600 ISO, f/4 and 1/200s using my 40mm pancake lens

Nina was very interested in whatever was going on outside in the cul de sac.

Maya had to check on what I was doing. She looks kind of ticked off, but she wasn’t. I promise.

Jezebel chilled at the other end of the sofa.

Comparison VSCO Black and White – Buddy

Here is Buddy with various VSCO B&W film treatments. I didn’t want to do the toy in the grass as the red and green read to close to each other in black and white. The differences can be subtle. What happens to Buddy’s eyes? The background? The shadows in his fur? All I did was add each film filter. I did not tweak. Obviously the filter is just the starting point and can be adjusted to suit one’s vision.
