i like the composition. i think it would have been more powerful if you had been able to use the lighting and post processing to hide the black matt even further. i just copied into my photo software, decreased the light (gamma), increased the contrast and it was too dark overall, but the backdrop became invisible and i'm sure playing around with light and processing you could have achieved that outcome w/great effect.

effective shot...... not sure about the reflections in the glass..... detracts a little from the simplicity of the shot..... overall though it's a good shot.....

The way in which the glass is broken is very nice, clean breaks. Did you go through a whole set? : )

Greetings from the Critique Club :)

I'm glad I got this photo for a CC selection because it was one of my favorite shots in the challenge. I see pet photos here every week, but most of them are not much more than your average snapshot. The theme of the 'cliche' challenge was to photograph a common subject but turn it into a great photo.. You have done an excellent job of that with your entry.

The lighting and the shallow depth of field in this image create a very 'soft' feeling to go along with the nature of this kitten.

I don't think there is anything you could have done to improve this great shot :)

Keep up the great work :)

I have a cat about this color, and just a little bit bigger. Definitely a personal favorite of this challenge. Very adorable, and a good picture to boot. I might have tried to take this with greater DOF if at all possible. - Inspzil

Absolutely beautiful. Has a great soft feel to it with that light. Looks like it could be a still from an advert.
Great composition, focus & DoF, this has to be my favourite this week, and that's saying something with the quality of shots in this challenge. Well done & good luck.
