| This is an extremely beautiful photo. I placed it onto my desktop immediately.... extremely rare. I love coming back to the detail in the fur, and my only critique is that Tycho's right eye is a tad dark. Nice work... |

Mag - This an excellent photo! So technically clean - as usual - and extremely emotional. I would've voted it a 10, had I voted.

| I think the low votes are indicative of hard-line "does not meet the challenge" opinions. Also, believe it or not, there are people that see pets not as individuals with personalities, but more as something akin to inanimate objects. |

| How anybody could give this a '1' I'll never figure out. Obviously there are people here who simply do not care about photographic qualities, or the fact that "cats are people too." :-) Just look at that face!!! All I can say is "great job" and this should've been number one! |

Thanks. 43 challenges entered and my first ribbon :). Now I've lost my claim to fame as being the only photog in the site favorites without a top 3.
Thanks for recognizing the technical and subjective qualities of this shot in spite of her being a cat, and not a homo sapiens.

In general, I didn't score animal shots so well because the dictionary calls a portrait an image of a person or human. This shot is exceptional, though, and I'm giving it a 9! Well done and good luck in the challenge!

| The unequal and bright spot in the eyes is distracting to me. KNowing how hard it is to take a picture of pets, it is otherwisw very good. |

Nice shot. I wish the catchlights were a bit smaller in each eye.
It has NOT affected my vote, but I don't think this colour border works well here. |

It's a shame that people will vote this down for being an animal shot. This is a stunning example of Portraiture. I give it a 9. I don't give 10's so this is as high as I go.
Everything is good in this shot and I am jealous that I didn't take it... |

| You got that right about the eyes. What colors are they. Looks like yellow and maybe blue. Am I wrong but is the right eye a little more dialated than the other? Maybe just the way the flash went off. Beautiful close up. Beautiful cat, and beautiful photo. It'd be an 8 with me. PTL |
