Fluffy II

Someone may remember that (Old World) Wildcat from the Alte Fasanerie on the pic below. Well as I have been there again to try out my new telelens, it was there again too.

 

I spent a lot of work on this, at first tonemapping with Oloneo´s Photoengine from the RAW-Image, while keeping the eyes from the ooc-JPEG with a mask.

After that I used Gimp with G´Mic to do a lot of Dreamsmoothing and Simple Local Contrast while keeping Curves and Levels adjusted.

In the end I used G´Mics Rodilius-Filter with masked eyes.
