Lone Wolf's Garden III

Originally designed as a business graphic for a program I found that allows you to make custom headers and footers for Mozilla Firefox [link] (the one I made from this image [link] and the original manipulation, fullsized without background, shadow and framing [link] ) I think this image of a blossoming Sakura cherry tree in the Japanese Gardens of Portland, Oregon turned out pleasing enough to post as a manipulation.

EDITS: I used a mask on the center portion of the image and desaturated it nearly to black and white. I added a black silhouette of a howling wolf, and painted him to stand out a bit more with highlighted head and chest, boosted remaining color saturation and used another mask to extract only the portion of the image I wanted to display. Added graduated background, shadow and frame.

This second version I also changed the background to a graduated black and gray to bring out the color in the image and changed the border at the suggestion of my friend, Ruth.
