I had taken a number of pictures at Chances Cat Rescue and I wanted to play around with my new software, Perfect Suite 7. For this shoot, I didn't have a background so there were pesky elements taking away from the picture of the cat.

Then I decided to experiment a little.

What i did:
I used Perfect Mask to remove the distracting background. Then I added two additional layers that came with the Perfect Suite 7 package. I then played around with various opacities and blending layers. I need to brighten the image a little and wanted to change selective colors so I brought the image into Viveza for the finishing touches.
