awwww. Look at those eyes. Like the cat doing those puppy eyes in Shrek 2 ;) Great shot!
Would've liked to see the background being a bit more out of focus.

Great POV & DOF, tones and contrast in this image.

This is also appreciated by the cat lover in me as it captures really well a cat's trying to "figure it out"; a grin maker :)

Absolutely great composition and perspective! The cat's paw batting at the camera really pops out and pulls the viewer's attention into the composition. B&W tones and contrasts are great too and the sharpness of details are wonderful too right down to the 'eyelash' hairs.

That is a weird, quirky shot and it WORKS!

How amazinging in focus is that face? BRILLIANT.

The paw looks SO odd from that angle, but adds so much to the oddness of the shot - great out of the box shot!

Wow - great shot. Nice clarity and a good conversion to B&W.

OUCH! He scratched my eye! :P

I like the creativity. I wonder what this would look like with the focus inverted - clear paw, blurry face. Meh, this is probably better. :)

This is priceless! He almost doesn't look real, but he definitely looks like he's serious about getting out. (Or she - apologies if I've confused the gender.)

This is so cute. So cat-like! You have so captured the universal personality traits inhererant in most cats. Curiosity, wonder, and definitely eye-beauty :)

This is funny - love the perspective here. My one nit would be to clone out the black area just at the bottom left - looks like a table and is a little distracting. Great shot!
  Photographer found comment helpful.

OMG, this is so cute and good!!! Love it, what a great moment you captured here. Excellent!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 05/03/2007 07:00:16 AM
That's really great - perspective-wise, and good sharp focus on the face. Would prefer a plainer background, current one has a pattern that's too "busy" IMO. This is one cute kitty shot!

Oh my goodness what a cute kitty! :)

Your idea is executed perfectly and your tonal range is GREAT!! Quick shutter finger!! Kudos X60
