Absolutely delightful! This is what those oddly shaped lenses were meant for.

Brilliant idea. Pity the cat's eyes are not open. That would have pushed this shot into another level. 7 for creativity

Interesting use of a fish eye lens. The cat looks like he is having a great time.

I'm going through the entries, stopping at those images I feel have had the benefit of an unconventional eye and dwelling a little longer to try to see and appreciate what you saw. This is one of those images.

Positives: I really like the quirkiness of this shot - the POV and the scene. I particularly like the feet at the bottom of the frame. I also like the general, everyday domestic feel of the image.

Critical stuff: I feel the edit is a bit vanilla and you could have gone a lot bolder - particularly in a way that would pull out the fantastic shadow on the oven door.

Overall: A very engaging image but one that (for me) feels a little sub-optimal in terms of its edit.

This image taken outside on some green grass might have worked. Inside it is not very interesting.
