Aye that it is, I have a great urge to nuzzle this one. Love the fur, great texture, nice pose.

Love the wild fur texture, could use a little more light on the eyes though.

I love the fur - long and soft! Nice pose from the kitty, too.

Needs a bit more lighting from the front to brighten her face and eyes up.

Wow. That cat has some HAIR! From the thumbnail it looks even cooler, like the cats head is this small face in the middle of flowing hair (kind of like a persons). :-)

Don't know if you made an artistic choice to backlight this shot. With the hair it's a good thought. Problem then becomes balancing the lighting out to fill in the face. Fill flash or a reflector of some sort would really help this photo reach it's potential. Because of the lighting it's hard to tell if the eyes are sharply focused or not...the eyes in a portrait are key and we should be able to see them a little better.

All JMO of course. :-) Good luck in the challenge.

Good capture and composition. I maight possibly have upped the exposure, tightened the crop and tried to have him/her appear more upright. Strictly subjective opinion.....it just makes me feel off-balance a little. LOL!! Nice clean image! 6

I little to much back lighting ie not enough front light. But I love all the hair!

Very Cute!

It's about time for a hair cut isn't it?
02/25/2008 02:32:54 PM
Look at that ear hair!! What a fancy kitty!

More light on the face would be better. The background is competing with the subject. Pretty cat.
