Teresa, thanks soo much for that link. I have been wanting to try high key and never knew how. I like what it does for blown out whites.

And (wo)man's best friend shown to great advantage Ellen. I have never been drawn much to high key images but you Phellos have shown some very nice examples that might now tempt me to go to that link and give it a try if I have a suitable image.

Beautiful work Ellen! I have always loved High Key.... did a blue toned one of Teagan a couple of years ago. But didn't turn out near this well.. But I still love it regardless... I don't have it on my hard drive anymore... but here is a link to Tea at 17 years.... she is 20 now http://www.betterphoto.com/Premium/Gallery.phpx?id=193924&cat=0&photoID=6026916&mp=V3

Thanks all, and thanks again Teresa. I think this shot really was suited for this treatment and had real beginners luck. I tried this on a shot of my friends child and was not very successful. Takes practice. Joan, love the one on Teagan. The blues work really well. Has an almost Alice in Wonderland feel to it. Beautiful cat, she has done very well for having health issues. I love how vocal and the tone of these cats voices.

There are many different way to do HK, but this seems to work well. A cute shot to try it on. Is he holding an orange....looks like it, but I bet it's a ball of some sort. I think you should also do HK to images that don't have blown out whites because then you have a HK with great detail and that is a winning combination. Don't just use it to save shots. My only suggestion here is that you cut back on the thickness of your stroke around the image. A 1 pixel stroke would do just fine and would not be so bold as to distract from the main subject. JMHO (Just My Humble Opinion) :~)

Actually, personally I would not add the stroke at all. I love HK on white backgrounds, almost seems to make them 3D

Beautiful full frame image Ellen, and wonderful job on the effects :) I agree with the no or lighter stroke! The attention should be on the beautiful dog!

Ellen, I think my first try was beginners luck too. I've tried it a couple more times on different images and it didn't work out very well. I'll definately keep practicing. :)

Taking a second look, I'll be the next to agree on the stroke, either very light or none at all. Either way it's a stunning image!

Congratulations Ellen! It's an honor to be in this category with you! Actually, I think it is our dogs that are "running against each other"; not us! Good luck!
