Nice capture. I like how you didn't center him but helped draw our eyes to the center with his placement. colors are nice.

This was particularly low rated and I don't know why. I connected to this even though I wasn't crazy about the color of the blanket. Truly a sweet and unusual image with GREAT DOF.

Comment by posthumous:
I love the colors of this and the composition. I scored it a little lower than I would have normally, because I felt the small DOF didn't show me enough texture.

This should have done better, but I guess there's a backlash against cat pictures - there being so many of them.

(p.s. My brother had a dog called Turkey, and likewise it was the name he already had when my brother got him.)

Comment by puzzled:
This is such a good Textures entry and such a nice photo in general. The blanket and the cat both have such cool textures and we don't normally think about the contrast, but it's there. You got the comment (in a forum thread, I think) that you can almost feel the cat purring --- I liked that description of this image. The only small thing that I can say might be an improvement is if the light on the cat's arm wasn't so strong. It kind of pulls my eye away from the cool shadows in the rough-looking blanket and the soft cat fur. Really nice job!!

Awww Deb! This is so cute!! I love the texture, but even more, I love the photo! I love how Turkey (doesn't he look a little like Emma????) is all bokeh'd and the blanket is so sharp and. . .well. ..textured looking :)

Fantastic job!!! And I agree with Rae-Ann. . .you got robbed. This deserves to be way up there in the 6's!!!

Really like this image, love Lance, the rose adds a really great contrast from the bold STRONG. Not sure how you could have improved the image, maybe a little different lighting, but not really sure. Really little thing, but the zipper bugs me, wish it ended in the dark line above instead of cutting the "T" that way, but maybe the line of the closed zipper through the "T" was more distracting. Overall really like this one, well done

Great shot and angle. I wish the paw were a little more in focus as that is the center of attention. But you showed just the right amount of his face and the textures of the blanket (and color) also really complements the photo a lot. Nice entry.
