Black And White Kitty Photo

Dennis

Just throwing in another photo of my cat Shyna. Found this one in my Lightroom library, and I really like the unusual perspective. But I didn’t like the photo in colour and changed it to black and white. Of course, that always fits with a black and white cat as the subject. But to be honest, cats are always beautiful, and you can’t do anything wrong when you want to take pictures of them. I hope you like this photo, check out my other cat photos and stories.

Mascot of the Blog

Dennis

It’s time to share a photo of my cat Shyna again. She is basically the mascot of the blog, and I shot thousands of photos with her. At this time there are 140 posts about her on my blog. I expected more to be honest, but maybe I didn’t tag all the posts with her name when I started this blog in 2011, and this would mean there are much more. Talking about the photo, I liked her pose, but I disliked the warm colours as the photo was shot in the evening with bad lighting. I almost deleted the … Continue reading Mascot of the Blog

Black And White Cat Photo

Dennis

Here is yet again a photo of my cat Shyna. The photo was taken when I still was in Reinfeld, we shot the photo on the terrace as I had her on a leash. I edited the photo with Lightroom, I wanted to crop it a bit, I made changed to the tone curve and converted the image to black and white as I was not happy with the overblown highlights. My cat is always photogenic, it’s no rocket science to take pictures of her, because she will like all cats just look good. Continue reading Black And White Cat Photo

Experimental Kitty Photo In Black And White

Dennis

This is a photo of Shyna that I shot in the first weeks after purchasing the D7100. I did all kind of test or experimental shots to get used to the camera. The photo was not that good with colours and decided to change the image to black and white. I couldn’t remove the distracting highlights or overexposed areas on the fur, that’s the point when I usually try out black and white and it often works well. It’s not that black and white does remove highlights or overexposed areas, it’s just less noticeable once you apply black and white … Continue reading Experimental Kitty Photo In Black And White

Monochrome Bridge

Dennis

I saw this freeway bridge when I walked near the Trave River. Something was interesting about this bridge, I liked discolorations on the metal, the rust and the moisture on the material. I took quite a lot of photos from the distance and then close-up shots like the image above. I had no idea how I would take photos when I was almost under the bridge but I did try to play with perspectives and thought I could decide at home. The photo above had the most interesting perspective in my opinion. I have now much more details in the … Continue reading Monochrome Bridge
