Oh wow. This is so stunning. I love the addition of the cat, the makeup, the asymetrical composition, the vibrant colors... everything.

edit: And I LOVE the lighting and how the lips stand out even though they are black like the rest of the face!

A former member of KISS? I like it! Love the cat, it gives the picture more interest.

There is such a dark mood in this photograph. Even the cat looks intense. The blue hair is a real eye catcher.

I'm not sure what the cat is doing there but I really like the effort you put into this. I hope the blue hair is editing :) Good luck.

Nice lighting and expression. IMO, the cat detracts from the shot. It would be more powerful without it.

the cat's eyes and the human's eyes are very similar...... nice job shooting this - an extra point for originality

hmm.. not sure what I think of this. The black and blue looks kind of cool. The blue on the cat's chin and nose don't really work for me, though.

If the cat where looking straight at the camera too, this shot would be even better!

Haaa...very creative. I think your first choice of 'Easy as pie' would have been a lot easier sweetie. But this last minute scramble...well as long as you had fun and got the shot you wanted. As for Suzi the cat...for anyone out there...she did enjoy it...everytime I put her down she would come back for more. She is a born model that one.

And just in case anyone is wondering...if I know a persons image...I generally don't vote...I don't think it would be fair to anyone..lol!!

wow. You certaily went to a lot of ffort got this shot. Very nice. The one white paw sticking up in the air distracts a bit, when the viewer should be looking at the models face & eyes, I think.

I am not sure why you used the cat, it takes away from the title

I like the concept, but the highlight on the cat's face feels a little harsh.

LOL. Is this Judi? I hope you just replaced the color in post! Btw, that looks like my cat! I have one that is strikingly similar.

The cat isn't cooperating? :) ... I love the blue hair (manic panic?) I'm wondering what happens if you let the cat go and have just the model. Nice though: 7
