One of our cats, Cheeko, hanging out by the front window recovering from surgery. She's been pulling at her stitches, so she'll probably be wearing a cone soon. Little freak.

Those eyes surely can't really be that colour?...
Love the lighting, and good focus and choice of depth of field.

9 - Oh - nice. Like the background 'lines', etc - wonder if trying to incorporate some green there, and perhaps a variation in the 'grey' background left, may have made this even better. Nice clarity, nice pose, nice eyes. Nice coat capture too. The ear not cropped top right, but fairly minor.

Beautiful clarity. And I like the wavy background on the right...adds interest without being cluttered. 7

Torties are so hard to shoot...a bit of a green cast on the coat, though I suspect a warming filter might normalize the tones.

I like this picture - the cats eyes are amazing! So pretty! I find the he curtain(?) on the right is a bit distracting though. Nice photo!

Pretty cat, what unusual markings. Little too much green in this shot for my liking, and it is made worse with the green border! I sometimes wonder if colours look different on different monitors since to me it is a very lime green?

Wow - if the eyes are really that color then you have one wild looking cat. If they arent then I think the color shift may have been a bit too much. You have such great colors and patterns going on in the fur that the eyes just seem a bit out of place. The strength in this image (IMHO) is in the clarity and vibrant color overall rather than making the color of her eyes the focus. They are sharp and detailed and I think if they were s softer color you would have had a better overall package. Beautiful cat though. 7

This cat looks like it has some serious radiation damage going on.

wow .. what green eyes! I'm a bit distracted by whatever is on the right side though ... the border seems to clash with it also ...
