I love cats.

Are the glowing green/blue eyes post production?

Yeah, HDR is meant more to enhance a photo's colors. If you do it right, you can make it less painting like and more vibrant. All depends on the edit.

To get the silky water look, you should slow down the shutter speed to lower single digits. The lower it is, the more silky the picture. Two things you will need is obviously a tripod and also an NDR Filter. The filter will help you out when you shoot during the day to make the shows less exposed. The lower the shutter speed, the more light comes in...so definitely look into this filter.

As for the background of the shot? It was taken during a cloudy/rainy day around 1 in the afternoon. I didn't need to use the filter this time because it wasn't too bright out, but normally I would.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for the details.

I'm a little bit familiar with ND (neutral density) but not sure about an NDR filter. Did a Google and Wiki didn't mention it either. Got a link where I can get one?

If you have PhotoShop you might consider removing the power towers and lines. The view and reflection are great.

I need to get up to speed with photoshop, but I was wondering how you remove the overhead lines in the sky, and the tower reflections in the water. Do you make changes pixel by pixel or does it have routes to do it for you?
