Well, not so much in appearance, but in temperment :-) And the cousins thing isn't quite right either, I suppose; Yoda's mom is the mom of Greystoke's mom. Hard to keep track of the cat family tree, thank goodness I finally got most of the breeding pack fixed! Anyway, this is Yoda and Greystoke, seeking refuge inside today from the cold. Most of my little adoptees get along pretty well most of the time.
Processing:
Apply shadow/highlight
Nik Software Color Efex Pro (CEP) Tonal Contrast
CEP Polaroid Transfer, but with all blur and texture out, just wanted to create the border
Did some adjustments to minimize the colored shadows that came out on the blanket they're on
CEP color stylizer layer, 31% opacity just to knock the color down a bit
resize
bit of unsharp mask
OHHH I love to see cats snuggling together...that's nice they could get in from the cold- you are a Kitty Saint to take care of your "kids" so well :) These 2 Are so plush looking !!!
Oh, that is sweet! Lovely pulling of the picture from the original. (Not sure what CEP is.) If my two cats get that close to each other, growling, hissing and fur flying ensues. These two look so content!
