In another processing mood today. I took a few passing shots during the day and instead of going out after work and trying to find a photo I decided to play around with what I already had. The mantis I saw when I stopped to wash my truck this evening. It was hanging out on a window frame near the change machine. The cat I saw this morning as I was leaving my hotel. It was still fairly dark out so I did an intentional slow shutter speed, moving camera shot. I played around with some textures on both of the images along with various levels and opacities. Hope you like my creature creations! Pentax K20D, DA17-70, DA55-300 (cat).
