 My tiger cat, Trible, posing for me again...she has lovely golden eyes, so I elected her to be my model...Trible is always very patient with me and will allow me to fire a flash in her face numerous times. This was taken with her up on a table, used fill flash and some light on right from a window...levels, curves, selective color, channels, cloned out a small discoloration on cheek, usm, cropped...most people will not think there is enough gold here, but I felt her eyes were gold enough.

This is just wonderful, and I love your cat images.....
Well done, and yes, there is enough gold in those magic eyes.....
This could even be an image for a card, as it has such great clarity, and depth of color.....

DNMC. The challenge in "gold" not yellow and Is see no gold in this photo. Its not even golden in color and I also don't like the subject. As far as the photo itself is, it has excellent clarity, very vibrant colors and nicely contrasted against the black background. Good luck in this challenge.
