    Default Cheetas DAP Painting

    Hi Folks;

    After seeing the good results of DAP, I pulled it off one of my external HD's and put it to work. Did the Cheeta photo Gina took
    in Kenya Africa using Pollman services in Narobi who got her close enough to Lions etc to hear them chewing on bones. As all she
    had was a Olympus C 770UZ 10x digicam you can see from her photos that the drivers knew where to go for good views of the
    animals. She said they were in constant touch with the other drivers who reported their location when sighting groups of animsals,
    and all drivers converged at the reported good sighting.

    After doing a Realism drawing in DAP, I processed their heads for, IMHO, a better view.

    Comments welcome and always appreciated as thery are my learning tools

    This is excellent, Gus! Beautiful base image and I love the pose. Great use of DAP and very well processed. My only suggestion would be to add a bit more sharpness to the head of the left cheeta. TFS.

    Gus, Nice job with the filtering. It isn't an easy one to get right. Maybe tone down the chest of the right Cheetah just a touch. Nice work and a wonderful capture!!
