This week's theme is botanicals. It should be a LOT easier than last week's (sports), so I might actually participate for a change. I had planned to go to one of the high school basketball games and shoot for for fun (which I will sometime soon) but then for some odd reason all the home games got changed to being away games for the week. Strange.
So, today's botanical photo is a stretch, I'll grant you that. But, S'mores IS surrounded by leaves and branches, so I'm counting it. She was asleep on the fence, and I swear I thought she was going to fall off! By the time I got back with my camera, she had woken up. Must have been a cat-nap (ha-ha-ha). Yes, I'm corny that way. Once again shot at an ISO of 1600. If any of you are thinking about moving to Seattle, the winters are seriously gloomy and dark sometimes, drives me nuts.
So, the age old question. Black and white or color. You have to choose. Really. Cuz I can't. Oh, and thank you!
CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM WELCOMED
oh...I love the colors and it fits the theme great!! what a cute little cat!
ReplyDeleteIMO most definitely color does her justice. Besides, in the dreary wintery days...a touch of color brightens the day. She's a sweetie!
ReplyDeleteYour color is very rich. I like your conversion, but definately prefer the color on this one! :)
ReplyDeleteI'm usually a B&W kinda girl.. but this time I'm going with the color..
ReplyDeleteShe's such a pretty kitty, I like the color! Also, I really like the angle on this.
ReplyDeleteI love the color one. Your pretty kitty kinda gets lost in the b&w version. Great shot.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the one in color...your photos always amaze me!
ReplyDeleteCari
have to go with the color...as dar said she gets lost in the black and white. the only thing i might try is to desaturate the background and leave her in color. love your colors tho! so rich looking
ReplyDeleteLauren...man, I have missed seeing your photos! These of s'mores are just wonderful (agree - COLOR!!!) The product ones from a couple of days ago are AMAZING. I'm going to have to try it!
ReplyDeleteanother vote for color.
ReplyDeleteWow - Your black and white conversion is amazing. I love teh richness in your colors. Beautiful cat and photo. Honestly, I can't make a vote -I would say maybe a combo - selective coloring :)
ReplyDeleteLove this shot. beautiful cat. I like both the true color and the conversion. It adds interest to the shot. Great eye
ReplyDeleteI really like them both but the colors are so rich I would have to chose that one as my favorite.
