 White rabbit on black background. Lit from above in the back with a lamp and used flash bounced off ceiling in front. I don't *love* this one but I do like how the lighting came out, especially on his whiskers. And I would follow that face anywhere ;-)

PP - cropped, curves, sharpened the whiskers and eyes a bit, burnt out a few distractions, reduced noise (should have changed the ISO when I broke down and used the flash!), converted to grayscale.

Cute bunny shot - you've done better than most of my attempts. Congratulations from another bunny owner/lover.

It looks quite oversharpened I think - and unless it's my monitor the highlights seem to burn out.

Nice capture, but appears perhaps too oversharpened. The whiskers and eye look a bit unnatural.

You've turned a pet shot into a piece of art. The background gradient spirals right into the bunnie's own gradient and is a perfect transition from black black to white white. At the center of the spiral is the eye - perfectly focused and just off centered in both directions, and a repetition and reflection of the black which began it all. The only drawback is being oversharpened and overblurred. Still - 7! Adding to favorites.

From the thumnail I though, oh dear thats not going to be very good, but as soon as I clicked on it I was pleasently suprised. It has nice sharp focus on the eye and whiskers, nice crop, good texture. And I do like the lighting.
Good job.
