I like this photo!!! I actually think it may have done well in abstract. I guess the voters got pretty picky about the "your" shadow thing, huh? but it really is a very interesting photo.

Even though I can tell what it is, I rather like the symmetry and compositon. The colours work too. What doesn't work quite so well is the depth of field. Since you were some distance (6ft?) from the lower cornice and perhaps 9ft from the roof edge, you should have been able to get all the planes in focus. You'd have to use the smallest aperture that you have available, at least F8.0. With the amount of light available, you'd still have had a shutter speed that wouldn't blur.

I'm taking your advice. :) Beautiful cat shot...stunning eyes. I love the kitty's coloring, too. A plainer background might be nicer but I realize that cats aren't really down with posing when you want them to and you're limited by basic editing rules.

I hope you don't mind some constructive crit. - the title of the challenge was "your shadow II" if this is your shadow I am not exactly sure what planet you are from. I would not understand the photo without the title and even then it is an extreeeeeeme stretch. The photo itself is difficult to look at - kind of makes me sea sick. Good luck - I did not mean to sound harsh but when I give such a low score I figure I should explain why.
