Late to the party - again...meant to come by earlier and offer congrats on such a great finish Wendy. Absolutely great lighting on this low key pet portrait and love the playful swipe of the claw.

Starting out the month on top again, I see - the luck seems to be holding! (Or perhaps it is skill and not luck.) :-) I will say that while I love shots of cats, I don't necessarily see this as low key. More of a very well lit and exposed shot of a black cat against black, which in itself is one heck of an accomplishment! But I am obviously wrong about the low key thing (and didn't vote because I can't really tell low key or high key for that matter!) so just ignore my ramblings. :-)

This is sooooo cute! Being a cat Mom, I wonder how you did this, Stop action and sharpness on a low key BLACK cat!

I love that you were even able to capture the claws out! :-)

... with sweet eyes and an iron hand one can do pretty much everything. What would be the highest mark given by this professor?

A prodigy at such a young age! Very cute pose and nicely lit for this challenge.

Oh my gosh, so precious. His eyes are absolutely stunning and its amazing how you got his claws to be so strongly out! I also love the little tuft of white. :)
