Thanks, folks. It's a bit of Photoshop magic. I got caught up in a thread on POTN about creating such shots and decided to try it with that one. The shot of the cat is authentic as is the light falling across her face, but the whole original image was normally lit. I dropped a new layer over it, filled with black, then used a layer mask with a brush set to 15% opacity to slowly "paint" in the cat's face. Alternatively, you can drop a black-filled layer behind the image and paint out the areas you don't want to show. Same results, different method.

This water tastes like feet!
All 3 of our dogs were working on the raspberry bush later that day. Our old lab, Jpeg, used to raid our garden of everything. Cucumbers, tomatoes, beans, peas, anything and everything. She really enjoyed the tomatoes. When they stopped ripening fast enough for her, she started on the green ones. Once it stopped producing fruit, she ate the vines.
Zuni, the one eating the raspberries above, eats the raspberry bushes themselves when there is no fruit. I don't know how, as it's really sharp and spiky, but she does.
A couple shots taken with the 135mmL and Kenko 300 Pro 2x TC. Still not too bad at ISO 2000!
