15Sep25: a closer look…

With a lighted magnifying glass, the only improvement over an edited photo to lighten his face is his eye color is more noticeable. There are three levels and temperatures of light with this particular magnifying glass. The level here is toward the blue end of the spectrum, compared with the end table three-way bulb light that’s toward the red end.
On the other hand, the edited photo to try to show his face actually shows his eyelashes better. They usually get lost in all that kitty fur!

Andy left the scene shortly after the second photo was taken: “No more of you today, Doug!”

He lied! Of course, he had to return several times for a bit of lovin’.
Some kitty has to eat those Greenies, and Andy nominates himself.

  6. I think Andy’s gorgeous eyes do show up better in the bluer light. But that could just be my personal preference, I’ve always chosen the bluer light bulbs for working on color in art or photos. Good dutiful work on those Greenies, Andy!

    • As a US Army motion picture photographer, we used the same film for both interior and exterior filming. Because incandescent lighting is toward the red end of the spectrum, the film was balanced toward the blue to give a more natural look to the results. Of course, that.meant we had to use a rose-colored filter for outside shooting to balance the results for sunlight. It cost a full f-stop in film speed, but the sunlight shooting overcame that issue.
