If Dali were a photographer, he'd look for this kind of setting. I want to see more. Well done.

Please understand that I'm not a cat person, and cat's aren't fond of me either. Plus there are an inordinate amount of felines in this challenge.
..That said, This is far and away the best cat shot I've seen and I am happy to rate this in my top picks for the challenge.
Beautiful expression and excellent detail. You did not appear to need the ubsharp mask to bring out the fine edges. Well done.

Wonderful composition. The simplicity here- not overdone as the fingers are relaxed and natural, along with the grain felt by the sand rather than post processing makes this exceptional. Good tone and lighting also.
To pick a little just so you know I'm looking, I think the lighting on the outer edge of the thumb could be softened a bit. But I had to look for it...

Beautiful shot. The balance and light is wonderful. If I were to knit-pick anything, I'd suggest losing (cloning) the red bouy floating in the back left.

An excellent color study and the lines lead well to the center.

Great capture. I think (not sure) that in advanced editing you could bring down the brightness of the tent - it's a little distracting.

Looks like you shot this througha window or glass door. I think you could have cloned out the streak and smear at the top since it's advanced editing. Still a very good shot.

Stunning shot. I wish you had made it a bit bigger.

The One Less Traveled

I'm staring and staring. I keep waiting to vote on this one because I can't decide what I think of it. I think I've figured it out, but I'm still pondering the excess blur on the train as well as the tracks up close. I guess I like it. The colors and balance are superlative and the subject is well centered although I wasn't sure what the subject was for a while. Gotta move on so I'll vote now. Nice job.
