Great shot, Allen. Love the motion effect. What did you use to blur the background? #111903Allan L. Whitehead March 29, 2004
Thanx for the great comments Wally, and Jan from another page. Wally I used the "motion blur" filter in PS CS, after placing the "Cat" on a secondary layer. Thanx again for the comment and support, I really do appreciate them - Allan #452130Kristen McKain March 29, 2004

This is a wild one,great shot Allan! #452163Patricia A. Kuniega March 29, 2004
I love how the background colors and jaguar are the same tones! Very nice motion effect Allan! You do some excellent PS work! #452181Allan L. Whitehead March 29, 2004
Thanx Colleen and Karen, I really appreciate them and your support. This is such a magnificent animal. If you could have seen her prowling in endless circles, you would have really enjoyed her, too. The reason I added the blur was to try and give the feeliong of her gracefullness and rhythm. Thanx again - Allan #452182Rob Friedman March 29, 2004
