Where there’s a sunpuddle, one can usually find a cat or, in this case, two. Our kitchen gets the best sunpuddles as it has a direct southern exposure. Consequently, it is a very popular spot for bathing and snoozing. For our Caturday Art Blog Hop submission this week I have selected a photo of Lisbeth and Mauricio doing those two things.
To increase the intensity of the colors in the photo, I selected two filters in Picasa: Boost and Saturation.
The photo to the left was taken just prior to the one above and has not been altered. The photo is a little blurry, the mouse is in the shadow and Lisbeth does not have her tongue out. I probably wouldn’t have used it on the blog except I wanted it as a comparison.

That effect makes the sun puddle look hot!
That looks like a very inviting sun puddle.
Our Mama just completed a painting that is red and yellow! Very cheerful colours to use on your photo! We love it! Plus, so coolio that the best sun is in the kitchen since isn’t a kitchen the best place to hang out in anyway? Add sun and it’s purrfect! Hope your Mama is feeling better these days!
the critters in the cottage xo
Love that zingy blue collar and mouse. They really make that photo stand out.
love the effect! You can do the same thing on http://www.ribbet.com which I am shocked that more people aren’t using.
Now, that’s a real glow of a sunpuddle! 🙂
I love sun puddle pictures. Happiness is there. ~xo~
Beautiful!!!!! Sam’s currently in a sun puddle on the floor of the guest room…..he knows where to be at what time of day to get max puddles on his daily schedule!
