Amur Leopard

OK just one more with the Frac. filter. This one is an Amur Leopard from the ST. Louis Zoo. I like the flaming look of the leopard. I used layers to reveal about 50% of the original facial features.
All comments welcome and thanks for looking!

What I like most about this treatment is how the black spots become "holes" really sweet effect!

Now that's some insane post processing (I guess it's obvious that I don't venture into this gallery too often :smile:)! Looks great.

REALLY interesting effect Mark! It's got me staring at it! Of course, that's the goal, right? :wink:

Cool! I liked the previous version a bit more, but this works. I have a sneaking suspicion this filter is going to be used to death (becoming a cliche), but if you have a good subject (like this) hopefully it will have some staying power. :wavey:

I think you are right Stan, we might start seeing this one too much. I will move on after this one I promise! :biggrin:

Mark,
This has some great colors and light. So, I finally got curious and looked for this plug-in. Alas, it's not made for Mac users...

Wow that's pretty rad! Looks like an energy being. Now you just need to figure out how to print on velvet! :wink:

Really well done. I just love how the black spots have become holes, it looks like some sort of membrane. Spectacular
