One of the homeless cats that lives in my neighborhood. I was trying a method of metering where you spot meter to the lightest part and use exposure comp +1-1/3. Makes the photo look pretty bad out of camera but if you darken it it looks nice, at least with light subjects.
Processing: increased contrast, darkened a little, unsharp mask, hue/saturation, match color, spot edit some specks on the cat's face.

A tighter crop would probably have made this more interesting. I like the background because the colors and "short lines" feeling matches the coloring of the cat, but as others have noted, the background is a bit overpowering.
Really cute kitty but this just has a snapshot sense to it. It doesn't appear to have alot of artful forethought. I'd love to see you on his level looking right at him, instead of peering down.
