doesn't seem enough ink to be a D. I get that much red in my papers when it's a B!... anyway... i like the pic.

Comment by Jedusi:
nice idea and I like the lighting on the paper. My only thought is whether it could have lost an inch of the top?

What a great concept and really well executed. I think you've got a little too much negative space at the top, but otherwise well composed.

A comment from the Critique Club:

First, the technical side. Centralised shots are often panned but this works well. The DOF is spot on with the bars of the cage nicely out of focus and the cat sharp on the eye. B&W works well with this, but I think the border is a little distracting.

Composition: Centre subject has to be strong, and this is, the eye is drawn to the eye of the cat which seems to state imprisonment. I am not a great lover of Borders and would prefer to see this shot without a border.

Overall: I didn't really like this at first glance, it was just another pet closeup. Then I started looking deeper and there is a sadness reflected by the B&W. Maybe a tad oversharpened, but a powerful image that is reflected in the score. A well constructed photo that I fear has been down voted cos it is B&W and of a pet. A good shot and worthy of its position.

Idea is good, but the light should be coming from the candle's direction, it is obviously from cameral right.

I think that here you lose a chance for a very great shot. the photograph is good, good the tones and good lights. I think that you need some words on the sheet for a better scene. 8

classic image, a tad too bright overall - wished, the background was pure black -, otherwise very well executed.
