Yes: these guys are balancing gurus. The subject is well lit. I would have cropped this differently, but then it would have been a different picture. With the way the sweet girl is placed, I would cropped right above her head: a perfect 8x10. Now, if I wanted to keep her in, I would have changed angle to include a little more of her face. However, the cat solo is a very strong visual. The lighting is so good, it needs no support whatsoever. Bumping this image to 6.

Ascetic balance beautifully done. The backgroind pale color compliments the bamboo.

This study meets the challenge head on. As an extra reward we get a classic pose, an attractive model and rich skin tones. The lighting and composition, including cropping, are beyond question. Very good work.
