  I have a question for you. Was this picture shot just this way or did you add the cat in PS? Did you do any kind of editing in PS. I'm learning so whatever you could share would be appreciated.

Mary-Ella Bowles
  I did use some Photoshop magic to create this image, Lori. I began by taking a photo at the local art museum of 3 paintings on a wall, and the bench you see in front of it. Then I took 3 of my tiger photos, used some artistic filters to make them look like paintings, and then placed them within the 3 frames. Next I added the photo of my cat, sitting her on the bench. Did ALOT of tweaking to make everything seamless. And finally, since this particular cat has no tail in real life, I created one for her in this fantasy image. I must say, it seems very strange for me to see her with a tail! Hope this description helps.

  Love this photo and shared it with a friend. (She loves animals and is currently fighting cancer.) Wants to know if she can use your photo on her timeline on Facebook. What should she do?

  I'd be happy to give her permission to use it (with a link to my website perhaps?), but as to HOW that is accomplished I don't know! Thank you for asking first. Hundreds (literally) of people have used it without my persmission.
