I think it was a great idea to cut off so much of the cat. It is so much more interesting than the whole cat

Hey there from the Critique Club

Camera Work/Technical: You captured a tremendous amount of detail, but the soft effect is a bit too much. I understand the effect that you were after, but I think a little less of it would have made this image even better. I do like the tones and colors you created, I'd just like to see a little more crisp.

Lighting: The lighting you chose for this type of image is near flawless. Every elements in the image is nicely lit, and no detail was lost in any harsh shadow or blow highlight.

Composition/Content: Your composition is much, much stronger for this image. You chose much better angles for your element positioning, thus creating a much more inviting flow to the photograph.

My Opinion: It is much better than the original, but could be even better with just slight adjustments. Tone down the softness just a bit and this one would have done much better for you.

FINALLY a cat picture I like. I just want to thank you for not putting up the same old, tired picture of a cat. This is a great shot. Warm yet intense. 8
