 Taken with my new lens, the Dreamy Diana. New overlay below taken with the lens too, my dirty window, then the vignette added in SEP2. I really love the vignetting and border tools in SEP2, but don't always want to convert to B&W. Not a problem, because you can add a control point in the center of the image and make it cover the whole image, then use selective colorization at the very bottom of the list to bring the color back. I would be so lost without the Nik plugins, I use them constantly!

These are four of the five abandoned kittens I took in when they were about five weeks old. They are a delight! They are getting to the age where they really want to go outside and they rush the door constantly. But I don't have a fenced in area that would contain them; I live really rurally, and I've already had a few cats go missing since moving here, so I'm not about to let these little guys out quite yet...

This is darling. I'm pretty much a sucker for most cat photos, but yours are all divine.

So lovely! So appropriate to the story you told us about those kittens, too. A fairytale ending for them to wind up at your door.

It is so touching without being mellow or sweet that it brings the real tears of joy in front of art. ART.

I find this image quite intriguing. A story and a reason for combining the images.
This is when it works. Well done.

Oh, this is great. I love your comments. I bought the dreamy diana lens too. I forgot I had and haven't really used it much. Must remember to pack it next week when I go to London. Agree with you about the Nik plugins, they are an integral part of my workflow too.

These little guys/gals look like they simply can't wait to get out.
