Had I not known better, I'd have thought it was our kitty Rose, except she has ONE black whisker. Nice job.

This is a great fill the frame shot. Love the closeup and the intensity of the stare. The green leaves are a great complement to the kitty's eye color.

Congrats on your high placement with the great image! I really like how you tied the color of the eyes together with the leaves.

Congrats on a top 5! I'm starting to read more about these "punishments" and hearing that many people are scoring high on them. Nicely done.

Yahoo! Those eyes are really something, Rob. I really like how the leaves frame her eye, too.

Nice going. You should get punished more often. I love the eyes. The focus and light are really nice. (how about that comment: "so many cats in this challenge". LOL)

Nice. Like the leaves in the forefront to break it up a bit. Definitely more interesting than your average cat shot.
