Week 3 Catch Up - Shades of Grey

I am almost all caught up with the themes. I have the next 2 themes ready and just need to post them here on my blog. So, this post is a catch up for week 3, Shades of Grey.

I love taking sky pictures because of the beautiful colors. I decided, though, that this photo still looks great in black and white because of the brilliant sun. So here's my submission for the theme....

This was taken on January 31, 2011 at Villa Escudero.
Taken with Samsung GT-I8000 (cellphone)
F-stop f/2.8
Exposure time 1/16384 sec
ISO-50
Edited with Picasa 3 - made black & white, adjusted tuning

I also wanted to post a picture that my hubby took that also works with the Shades of Grey Theme....it's my sister-in-law's Dog (Zoey's) best friend...."Cat" (aka 'Ket").....

I'm still trying to convince hubby to join in with the photo challenges....

Here is the result for that. I wanted to soften the lines under the eyes a little without completing removing it which would make it look too unnatural. Finally, i wanted his eyes to really pop. So here is the final image with an eye enhanceme...
