Self portrait with my bestest buddy - Gus. I was trying to capture how he is with me most days - when he's in his lovie dovie mood. Wasn't easy making eye contact with the cat and making sure camera was in the right spot too! Note: his loving mood changed after several attempts and flashes of the camera! I didn't capture the moment when he swatted me in the head...lol Picture details: Taken with Canon Rebel XTi. Settings: AI Focus, Evaluative Metering, WB: Cloudy, (P) mode, flash on, ISO 100 - used 18-55 kit lens. Photoshop details: Cropped original image, converted to B&W, adjusted midtones, shadows & highlights slightly and smudged out distractions in the background.
