There seems to be a lot of green in the picture other than the eyes. I think a tighter crop would have increased the spookiness and got rid of the bright spots of orange on the right and top.

Composition could have been improved by cropping out the red areas of the photo. The eyes are a lovely colour and appear to be nicely in focus. They really pop out of the image to grab your attention. There is a certain amount of low-level noise in the black areas which you might have been able to recover with careful use of levels/curves to make the 'almost-black' completely black. Composition is great with the eyes placed nicely off-center.

The red in in the upper corners cropped out leaving the eyes as the true subject.
Good shot most Cats eys reflect the Light even without a flash.

This would be perfect if you had cut out all the red. Awesome eyes though!

Would be better to cut out everything but the black cat.

i would have cropped out all of the red(background behind cat). i think u have maybe too much green saturation but without the red BG it improves the overall photos feel.good luck 7

Like the eyes - the gap to the red contrast appears a bit big for me

A tighter crop to get rid of the orange, and focus on those beautiful eyes could have been better, but good effort anyway.

Cool cat-eyes. You should have cropped the orange off of the side and top. That would have sent this image over the top.
