Black, White & Neon

This picture is creative to the theme. But a bit boring and underexposed to me. Cats are not the best "neon" creatures in the world. If you want to show the glowing eyes, a good way was to get close enought to reveal only the cat´s face, like a portrait, in a better light condition.

Great color cast. Nice idea. I think that is will be more appealing with less black in it.

A lot of people wanted to know how I did this, and it really isn't complicated. Thinking back to a science class demonstration, I remembered the "colored shadows" effect. So I set up a quick test, and when I saw that it would work, I started thinking about the "creative" aspect (the key part to most challenges, in my opinion) of what to have make the shadows. I eventually thought of using flowers that matched the colored shadows, but was reluctant because of the possible "another flower shot" backlash... but I decided to do it anyway because I couldn't think of anything better. =] So I made a quick trip to the grocery store (where I had seen these multi-colored daisies in the past) and bought the flowers. I shot with the lights in several different locations, but I settled on this composition for my entry.

(I'm glad this was a "Basic Editing" challenge, or I'm sure some voters would have assumed this effect was created in Photoshop!)

I found this web page which explains the colored shadows phenomenon for anyone interested.

Hi Eddy;
Congrats to your ribbon. It was well deserved.
I´m curious about your link. This is broken to me.

Very good exposed. I like the shadow details and the color contrasts. You drive your dynamic range to the top.

Try to remove some magenta using selective color in PS. This will help you with this purple fringing. A nice shoot, overall.
