Caturday Art Blog Hop - I'm BACK!!


Hi Pals,

Finally, i'm back and here to stay - I hope.   Now it's time to have the peeps put up  with the things I want to do.  Afterall, I put up with what they wanted to do and am still doing it!  (Meaning moving me into some old folks home, where life is really boring.)

The above picture started out like this:
It was really glowing orange because there is a street lamp right outside M's bedroom that glows orange at night.   Even tho the blinds were closed, she could not get rid of the orange color.   So she put it through PhotoShop  Elements 11 and used the "Carmalized" button, which toned down the orange considerably.   That almost gave it a grayed effect, but she liked that better than orange.

From there she went to Pic Monkey and gave it a frame.   She says she could probably do a better job if she could only sit longer in her office chair.  Oh well, this is better than nothing.

Can't wait to see all the other art work on Athena The Cat Godesses Caturday Art blog hop today

It's great to be back everyone.  i've missed you all.   Everything is fine here, although the peeps are still working on selling their house!   More about that later in another post.

We like it! You can also go to Enhance, Adjust color, Remove color cast in Elements. We use that a lot.

Glad you're back, Mario!

Welcome back! Loved the art. If M used the Auto Color or Auto Tone presettings under the Image menu I believe in Elements it should take out the orange. I use to to take out the yellow from irridescent lighting.

Hi Mario! Moving is tough - moving into a smaller place is tougher - moving and retraining your humans to do your bidding is tougher x2 so good luck with that. Nice to see you though - and I like the "original" orangey photo as well as the fixed up one....but then I'm a ginger cat so like the orange stuff!

Hugs, Sammy
