Poor Sir Thomas. He never fares well in challenges. And he's such a delightful, annoying, endearing cat, too. For those who think the cat hair on the toy is "distracting", you try having a cat toy without cat hair on it. :-) Do wish I'd had the foresight to cut off the tag, though.

I was playing with the toy with one hand, shooting with the other.

Ha. Nice diagonal tension. (Expert editing would have allowed you to highlight, just a tad, that clever wicked little toe claw).

Wow this is awesome. Composition is very cool and the lighting adds such drama. Your color treatment (is that sepia?) is perfect. I'm a new kitty mama so I can marvel at these things now. :) Interesting disparity between the commenters and the voters. You got some skillz to be able to play with kitty and shoot photo at the same time. I have much learning to do :-D

great picture. Almost a shame you can see his face in the BG. After the challenge I'd darken all the background and remove the label off the toy - bam!
