Hi Jim,

That is an actual photo, I did not put her on the background. She was not as far away from that background as I would have liked, she was only about 4' away. I used my 70-200mm Vr f2.8 lens, and 2 reflector umbrellas.
The only processing on that photo was Adobe Camera Raw in CS4. I brightened the exposure, deepened the blacks, then because she was (and still is) dirty, I used the Adjustment brush and brushed in -70 on the Clarity slider to blur her fur, but left her face untouched.
