I hope you didn't intentionally sacrifice the ornament for this shot. :-(

Layered with moisture and light

I really, really, want to like this photo. Well, actually I do like it, but I'm not crazy about the end result. Some steps in PP brought up the noise and grain, yet the blue sky is clean. Guessing some HDR maybe and selective NR? Anyway...it's a lovely scene and does fit the challenge quite well IMO. Good luck.

Sorry I've been late in commenting on this...you captured a wonderful expression on Thomas' face! I bet right after the shutter click he turned and pounced the back of the bag. Looks like he's pumped up on catnip. He-he.

Just to let you know, I can relate to the challenge of getting a cat in just that right moment. You've commented on a couple of entries I've entered over the years. Here's a couple -->

Congrats on the Ribbon! Well deserved for sure. :-D

Well you most certainly will get many views...sex sells and all that. Too bad your creativity was so stifled that you had to basically enter this same soft porn photo twice in two consecutive challenges.

Darn! Did I just use the same comment twice? Shame on me.

Well, I enjoyed it. I liked the image selected for this play on words, and the use of negative space works quite well IMO.

Something about this I really enjoyed. Lighting, lines, and emotive feel I guess. Gave it an 8.

I do have to mention that I find one of the stats (voting/commenting) of your entry somewhat interesting. :-/

This was a 10 for me. Combination of starkness and beauty, with an interesting comp, made it work for me. Very nice!
