I love the atmosphere the bizarre lighting and colors create. Fascinating!

Deb, I've already told you I love this image; I do, and I would give you words for it, but I already love the ones that Jutilda and tnun have given so much that I am at a loss to proceed. I will, instead, simply look and (hopefully) see.

Nice sharp focus, and black-and-white was an excellent choice. The cropping seems a little tight on the right; I might have gotten just a bit more of the nose or face to orient the viewer. But it's a minor point. Well done!

Came back to add to my somewhat 'short' comment below (but hopefully my score spoke some too). I liked this, especially the concept - wondered during voting about a tighter crop at the bottom to eliminate the oof area of the paw, and reduce the strong highlights which just take a little too much away from those 'pure' looking whiskers.

Deb

lovely abstract that I am sure would have scored higher had we not just had the pet portrait (as you infer in your notes for non cat lovers there are only so many shots of felines that we can take)

Really like the softness of the B&W conversion but the way that you have not lost the contrast of the various tones.

The sharpness on the whiskers is sublime

I like the leading lines to the schnozoo! Very interesting mix of delicate and imposing!

I love this, Deb! I think I would come to Germany just to photograph the train stations! Maybe next year. We could catch up for a coffee! You could meet me at the train station!! : )
