I don't get it. Is this your shadow strobed? It's hard to be sure it is about you and your shadow. If it is, it's one of the best I have seen

Wow, normally I'm not one for the animal pictures but this cat's eyes are perfect for this. Great shot.

We are owned by a sealpoint too, (along with three dogs and a black cat too, all female OUCH!), understand the problems with taking photos of them, but I know that you will take better overall photos of your cat. Obviously you know the background is not the best, so will not mention that again! This is not a bad photo in any form, but to me there seems to be lots of room for improvement, and remember, this is MY opinion only. First, the lower left part of the cat (in the photo, right side of cat), the shadow of the cat, the cat and the background all seem to blend together. Secondly, from a viewers standpoint, the cat is looking OUT of the photo, leading the viewer to wonder what she is looking at, rather than concentrating on the actual photo. That pose is also not as attractive overall as a straight on or profile shot USUALLY! You also seem to have lost a little sharpness/focus on the cats right eye - left one in photo, not badly, but I did notice that. Overall did a good job on the fur, at least in my opinion, and as I was entered in this challenge, I chose not to vote on it, but would probably of scored this a five, because it was not bad in any sense, but could of been so much better IMO.

Picked out one of your least commented on photos to try my critique on, so - Think the subject is good, composition comes across as just a LITTLE hard on the eyes, not terrible, but not optimum. To me the first thing I noticed about the actual photo was you cut of the end, making it almost like an incomplete story. I did not vote on this challenge, but had I, truthfully would be in the majority of others, either 4 or 5, depending on MY mood, and that does make a difference with everyone, unfortunatly! Also, not a critique but an opinion, I prefer color almost every time, as I find do most of the dcp'ers, but you have to be true to yourself first, so I try NOT to downgrade images done in sepia, b and w or other mono or duo tones.
