Monochrome Portraiture

Seem to sticking with monochrome for the moment, so here’s another: portraiture.

Cat as a Bond Villian

I’ve not had a lot of success in this in the past, and the photo above is the one real exception.  I think it’s partly the subject matter (i.e. black cat) but also the midtones of the surrounding area.  This is something I want to work more on in the future.

Next time, some “softening” photoshop effects a la wedding photography, as applied to champagne drinks.

Happy shooting!
