Cool rats. I worked at a cannery one summer while in college and there were many rats on the loading dock. They were a lot meaner than these ones appear to be. Are these tame or feral rats - the one with it's face showing actually looks kind of friendly!

Greetings from the Critique Club!

Hi! I like this image, the emotive factor is there and the black and white sets a very nice tone.

It looks like a decent use of the rule of thirds with the person covering the left and bottom side of the frame but I would have liked to maybe seen their face a bit more, just a slight turn more towards fireplace so you could at least see one eye and the look of deep thought in it.

The grain is a bit much, just a bit more than really needed for this shot though this shot does work well with grain.

There is one spot on the bottom of the foot that almost looks blown out, not sure if it was a light or from post processing. And possibly just a touch more contrast to give it a little more edge.

Hope my comments help!
