Sorry about another kitten photo, but I have some wonderful subjects here! I used 1 softbox, 1 reflector, and patience. I actually like this one, which probably means a low 5 nowadays. Thats how all my work has been scoring.

This is one that jumped out at me in your thumbnails.It's incredibly cute but not in a chocolate box way! I have to agree with the comments about the reflections in the eyes they are very distracting.Would love to see this reworked without the constraints of editing rules.

I really liked this shot I'm surprised it didn't do much better. I really like the crop. It's a well balanced shot. It's hard to no what to enter when shots like this don't make the top 10.

Very precious shot.
The crop/composition is perfect.
Poster-quality shot in my opinion.

I don't like the large, distracting reflecion in the eyes, but other than that nice shot.

What a cute kitten.
Compositionally very strong, and good tonally. Might be my monitor, but the focus seems weak in the eyes. 9.

Aaah is this fair play? He's just so cuuuuute! Excellent contrast and composition, though, I must admit. And of course, this darling expression... :o)

How cute! I like the tilted composition. The square reflection in the eyes is a bit distracting, but overall, I like this alot!

Nice work on this shot. It must have been pretty hard to get. Or maybe his curiosity worked well with the lens.

I might be wrong, but this little kitten looks very familar to photos of some I've seen in the forums. Some of the whites are a bit too much for me, but otherwise I like the contrast, especially around the eyes and on the left side of the photo.
