AWW This is poignant. I wonder if seeing her/him from more straight on wouldn't worked a bit better, as so much detail is in the concrete. I do love the textures and edit though. 7

This is by far the most creative and visually sensitive image in this challenge. It does so much so well: effective composition, wide range of tones, strong textures and powerfully abstract mood - to name a few notable elements of this shot. What stood out to me at first was the comp with its visual play of flatness vs an artificial sense of depth. The textures and rectilinear shapes establish a flat plane into which the shadows and shape of the cat appear to sink. (And no, I'm not a nut - just reflecting my sensitivity training in visual perception which was part of the Hunter College art curriculum in the 1970s.) The placement of the cat and its relationship to the black rectangle is brilliant and very expressionistic in visually representing abstract feelings - the blackness representing a void in the animal's world. Adding to that is an unexpected heaviness in the way the cat sinks into the normally impervious surface. I dunno about the title - this image is stronger and more complex than that.

Gorgeous shot, gorgeous cat! I have trouble feeling sad as I am so taken by how cute that cat looks.

Oh goodness. That cat really looks undernourished. And very sad. Wonderful shot.

Don't see sad. Had to drag it out of the title. Good luck.
