I’m also participating in Athena’s Caturday Art Blog Hop. It’s a way for blogging cats to show our artistic, creative, boho side. If you click on the link above, you can see some other artistic pieces.
I’ve chosen to take one of the pics that TW conned me into “posing” for and putting an Amber tint on it using a PhotoShop Instagram action.

As an experiment, I wanted to see if using the Tint effect on PicMonkey, I could duplicate the Photoshop action. It doesn’t look it but I tried to match the color as closely as I could. Then I highlighted the candle by removing its tint. If you’re planning on using effects like these on an online photo editor, what you see is not always what you get. The photo below is the screen grab and the one below that is how the image actually saved on my computer. I like the PhotoShop effect much better than either of the PicMonkey images. Which of the three do you prefer?

Cool photos!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty!!!
ReplyDeleteWe like the Photoshop version the best too. It almost has a sepia quality to it.
: )
Are you a secret orange cat?
ReplyDeleteOur Mommy likes the candle and she really likes the low-down dirty trick your Mommy used on you. MOL!
ReplyDelete(you gotta watch those humans - they're tricky!)
We wish our Mommy would play a dirty nip trick on us...just sayin'.
ReplyDeleteUgh, so not fair that your human tricked you like that! I like the Photoshop version better... and there are ways to manipulate images in Photoshop that will do what your human was trying to do in PicMonkey, only better!
ReplyDeleteRather a fine candle, we thimk!
ReplyDeleteThat's a very pretty candle.
ReplyDeleteAll we can see is your gorgeousness in all of the pics!
ReplyDeletePurrfect for Sepia Saturday.
ReplyDeleteBest wishes Molly
Well CK that was a sneaky way to get an "up close and personal" photo of you with the candle BUT it's mighty pretty - not as STUNNING as you of course but pretty.
ReplyDeleteHugs, Sammy
That was a very nice Amber Alert CK!
ReplyDeleteWow... what those humans won't stoop too... But, admittedly, well played human, well played...
ReplyDeletePurrs from the Zee and Zoey Gang!
Great interpretation of Amber.
ReplyDeleteI like the last one...And that is a fabulous candle ( and a pretty kitty!)
ReplyDelete
ReplyDeleteWhat great shots for this week's theme!
Have a super weekend.
Great pics and lovely candle too :)
ReplyDeletePurrs xx

That is a lovely candle. I like the photoshop version the best. I will forgive my mum any low down dirty tricks if it involves nip.
ReplyDeleteWe have to say we think the Photoshop effect is the best among the three. :)
ReplyDeleteI'd prefer to see YOUR 50 shades of gray CK ;)
ReplyDelete♥Pasha,
Purrfectly fair!
ReplyDeleteLove your amber candle.
try www.ribbet.com (that's the one I use the most) and see what you think
ReplyDeleteI like the Photoshop one cause the candle looks green in the others.
ReplyDeleteMostly, I like looking at your sweet little tongue, which I would really like to see in person . . . soon. XOXOX
YEah we think Photoshop's the best too! (and yeah the humans are TRICKY that way with the nip.)
ReplyDeleteCool pics, CK. And seriously...don't complain about getting nip. Nip is good no matter what. :)
ReplyDeleteAny nip is good nip!!

Cool photos, like your take on amber. The Photoshop one is our fav. Hope you are having a nice weekend CK.
ReplyDeleteWe like either the first or third photo. The middle one was stripped of all its color. Mom would like to get PhotoShop but cannot rationalize the expense. The various free apps are okay, but sometimes it's not possible to get the look you want. Purrs and paw-pats, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Giulietta
ReplyDeleteThe photoshop version is my favorite. It also comes in handy for removing unsightly kitty litter on the floor in my shelter cat pictures!
ReplyDeleteNice take on amber.
P.S. So you like my sharp little teefs, eh? Well, come on over and see 'em up close and fursonal. I'd be happy to give you a tiny nippy if you'd like. XOXO
ReplyDeleteGorgeous shots - I love the sepia version especially. Happy Caturday from the Pawesome Cats family!
ReplyDeleteCOOL pictures CK !
ReplyDeleteBut me think´s you look best in original :)
XOXO
TW's candle looks very pretty! And I love your art images! The tint effect gives very lovely look :-) I agree, images don't always show in the look you see. I think each one looks lovely in each way!
ReplyDeleteBootiful as always BFGF...the red tint in your furs suits you
ReplyDeleteI like them all. There are other layers in Pic Monkey that are easier to use than Photoshop.
ReplyDeleteHello my sweet, I hope you had a lovely Easy Sunday and didn't have to put the bitey on . . . anyone. XOXOXOX
ReplyDeleteOh my dear Kitty, you are absolutely gorgeous! I'm so glad you decide to share this on Sepia Saturday. Each selection you used had a different emphasis...my fav is the pink tongue :)
ReplyDeleteSee you next week on Sepia Saturday! Hopefully LinkyTool won't act up again.
