I love this picture but have a small suggestion for future animal portraits - there is a rule of thumb about cropping off arms and legs. If you're going to show past the shoulder then you show the entire leg to the foot or arm to the hands... I'd suggest cropping around the shoulder area and not showing part of the leg b/c the eye expects to see the rest. It's a small thing for an otherwise beautiful image. Gorgeous light!

Not my favorite cat, but a great spot focus and composition.

Thats a great stare, I think I would have cropped the left off so that the frame would have been filled more with all his spots.

Nice kitty... good kitty... no I don't wish to be lunch... The very direct glare makes you wonder if that is indeed what it's thinking! Love the paleness of the eyes.
