Fox

I desaturated this Red Fox and added a zoom blur. Masked back in the eyes and added an orton action and some burning. I almost forgot I started w/ a flipped version of the Fox.

That's an outstanding image across the board! The tones are nice and the zoom blur is just enough..many of us tend to overdo the zoom blur.

Very cool, and scary D. Very creatice PP.

I gotta say if you hadn't told me it was a fox I really would have thought I was looking at a baboon! That's an amazing image, Denise! It looks like you did a vignette around the edges and that's my favorite part - it really blends in well with the black & white fur.

Yes, it almost looks human, like he flew out of the cuckoo's nest :)

I love the radial lines and eye color. If this were mine, I'd burn some more of the top to "seal" the image. VWD.

that's some good work, denise! i like it. different. i like the simplicity of the surroundings of the very detailed eyes. the zoom blur just points your total attention at them.

This is masterly, denise. Great concept and PP work. The eyes are magical. A real knockout!:)

Denise, another very creative image from you. It looks really eerie, almost like cat eyes.:cool:

Do you visualize your final image, or do you experiment along the way with the many varied tools in your kit?

Thank you all for the kind words,
Fabs, I'll give it a try-good idea.
Julie B.- Sometimes I just go with the flow of the image- but for this one I had an idea of what I wanted to do. So I tried to create the vision in my head:) Thanks

Way Cool Denise - reminds me of one of those Gremlins - Just add some water :)

Thanks Lance. I appreciate it.
