haha :) I almost did the same thing. nice lighting at sunset? Composition would look better if he wasn't right in the center.

First of all thank you to everyone who felt compeled to comment.
I knew they would range from disgust to wow, but when I saw the cat there was more than just a dead cat. And unlike some who feel this is not art I beg to differ, if all you see is a dead cat your not looking.
The composition of the image tells the story...ie. the double yellow lines, the tire marks, the look of total fear on the face.
The contrast was a problem there is a small area where cat and street tend to come together but when I printed the look is much better.
But thanks will do better with it next time, I hope the matter of well thought out photos continue and once agian thanks

Comment by ButterflySis:
Wow, umm, yuck! lol

My reaction went like this... "Eww, that's sick!" while remembering I'm a cat lover. Then I think to myself, "That IS a cat, right?!" Then I notice the faint lines in the road and then the tire track imprints still noticeable and let out another, "Eww!" Then I realize I need to read the title. "HAhahahahaa! That's too d*mn funny!!" :-D :-D Thanks for the laughs!

So, umm, I guess I don't have a 'real' critique on this, but it's a hilarious picture with a very appropriate title for this theme! :-)

wow, I have seen only a handful of images thus far, but after browsing the thumbs I hope yours gets the rating it deserves!

I will give it a 9, would eb a 10 but qulaity wise it's not perfect. I would crop it some and perhaps add a little more contrast.

A very brave image indeed, and hope you don't get too many fuddy-duddys moaning about the subject. What a message indeed.

Can't wait to see who is responsible! (do hope you didn't run the cat over for the sake of setting this up ;)

Edit: Giving you a 10 now ;)
