 Knuckles rolling on the floor like he loves to do.

Levels first to brighten it a bit. Channel mixer to b/w, merged the red and blue channels and turned "constant" down to boost contrast. Crop. Resize. USM.

My sexy indoor lens. Check out that aperture. Jealous much?

Yeah, it's got blown highlights. You want to make something of it? Talk to the cat.

Screw the blown highlights - this is a very cat cat picture. Those are the best. Love the grain, too.
