Welcome to the Peer Hotel
This little fella was acting as either a protector or the welcoming committee for this small hotel in Tel Aviv. I couldn’t tell….you decide!
After some initial processing of the RAW file in Lightroom I used Topaz Texture Effects to give this a monochrome, old-time feel. I then brought the image back in Photoshop and used a layer mask to remove the texture effect from the cat.

Love the texture on the door, and the cat add a beautiful touch. I’m sure he was welcoming you to take the picture… 😉

Love the processing! I learn so much from the photographers that I follow; I didn’t know that you could remove the texture from the cat.

Thanks Laurie. Yes after you apply the effect you can use a layer mask to paint back unoriginal parts of the image.
