I did see your comment in the scores thread earlier but unfortunately didn't get to comment much while the challenge was going:-)

First off, congratulations on your ribbon! Now off to my critique. The expression is priceless. The tilt of the head, the eyes that look straight at you unabashed and unashamed with any action this curious kitty may have done is what grabs and holds our attention. Love the title for it really captures what the cat is saying:-) Lighting is wonderful for the white on white hues are, for me at least, difficult to capture. The contrasts between light and shadow are perfectly balanced. Details are excellent too...from those lumunious blue eyes to the whiskers to the downy softness we see on the torso. I was going to suggest that a square crop would be better so the even more focus is brought to the cat. But if you did, you would loose the way the cloth falls in gentle folds as the cat plays under the sheets - and it would lessen the playful nature of the scene. So, the composition as it stands is perfectly lighted, focused and composed. Well done.

A nice entry. However, I find the horizon way too tilted. I like the colours and the bridge, and also the sky.

This location would make for some amazing shots, but I would like to see the sun setting/raising behind the bridge, great site though!
