So much happened during the year. It was a year of failed promises, foreign invasion, Ukrainian resistance, economical uncertainty…
All this time I was wasting
Hoping you would come around
I’ve been giving out chances everytime
And all you do is let me down
250 000 right brackets. Original image (5200px * 5200px) is too big to be posted on flickr this one is half the size.
Processed in Photomatix using 3 different exposures taken from a single RAW, then post-processed in Photoshop.
Much less cartoony than my effort and managed to maintain the vivid blue sky. Photoshop clearly has good noise cleaning options too!
Thanks Zing2008!

The final editing of images is done in Adobe Photoshop
This image is not mine, it was taken by SeaMowse and put up on one of the Critque groups where I downloaded it and did some post-processing. Original belongs to SeaMowse who took the picture. This is the original:

I liked SeaMowse's original for composition but there were issues. First the background was dominating and second, the lighting on the cat was somewhat flat. In PP I darkened the background and cloned out the bright lights there. This was pretty fast and sloppy and you can see some of the original background brightness above the cat's head as a halo. Anyway, the next step was to add lighting effects. Here I dup'ed the image and darken it using gamma curves (in GIMP). The right (bright) side of the curve was simply reduced by 20% and then an exponedial curve was made to increase constrast in the middle tones. A layer mask was placed on the original and using a large soft brush I darkened the right side of the face (assumed a light source at 10:00) and darkened along the bottom except the paw and progressive darking of the rear of the cat. The goal was to focus attention on the face. Using smaller brush I dab'ed in darkness in the pockets of the curls. I darkened in some areas under the chin and along the inside left part of the ears as well to help with 3D effect. I cloned out reflections in the eyes. Made the tip of nose a bit more orange and brighter. Finally I adjusted final image using s-curve for gamma and reduced the color sat by about 15% (to match the lower overall luminance) and warmed the image up a bit by increasing the red channel and reducing the blue a bit. I knew the result was stunning (well I had a good image to start with!) but didn't think it would go Explored!
