I probably should get out more. Yet another cat photo, heh.. I've been very busy lately though so a definate lack of being able to go out to shoot when the light is ok.

I got a new toy which came in a box, Nikita my bengal kitty claimed the box.

The aperature is a guess since I took the photo with my old manual lens.

Post processing: curves, resize, unsharp mask, neat image (just a bit)

To me there is a bit too much surrounding the cat that I'm no really interested in. I would have loved to see this adorable cat filling the frame substantially more. Is the cat really that orange? Love his eyes.

I think a different crop would improve the composition. Great job at getting eye level.

The cardboard box distracts me, and some of the details in the paws are lost. Good photo though.

I am not a good photographer, I do not claim to be better than anyone, any criticism is meant to be constructive criticism......

Great eyes, but the background kills this for me.

Very cute cat, love the soft effect on the fur and the beautiful green eyes, but the rest of the photo isn't very appealing to me.
