 This is one of our cats. She's twin daughters of different fathers, but don't ask. A bit simple and completely clumsy, she spends most of the day in this box looking rather pleased with herself. This is her natural expression.

This capture took a whole bunch of curves adjustment layers and masks to bring the attention to her face. My original capture included the entire cat and much more background, but cropping her very close to the top added a bit of tension. I removed the drugstore.com logos on the box with the healing brush patch tool.

Sorry this shot is definitely in the box, and has awwww factor.. By my calculations meets the challenge by 64 1/2%â€Â¦.
