Idea is great, execution needs more work though as waz has suggested.

Black and white cat in black and white! LOL. Lovely shadows and a beautiful cat who you obviously caught in the middle of it grooming itself. And a good thing you did, otherwise we would never have known what a pretty tummy it has

I love the contrast in both cats' expressions and their positions relative to each other in this frame. I might have panned the camera slightly to the right though, but that's me. Nice shot

That looks like a shot I might have taken of my cat who never co-operates when she sees a camera in my hand LOL.

Soft against soft, lovely! I think I would've liked a wider shot of this though. The colors and lines give it a quality almost like a painting. Good eye, author.

Wow, your cat's wonderful velvety coat is shown off here to it's advantage. What's beautiful, but probably not instantly noticeable about this shot is the play of eyes of both you and your cat...their expressions and their opposing directions. It makes it quite an engaging shot. Besides that, the bond and love you share comes through very well too. Well done!

Windows are definitely one of cats' favourite places. I love in this how the white in her fur is set against the white environment and how the remaining colours contrast with it. She looks just perfect right there.

Cuteness embodied!! Composition, colours and pose captured are superb! Congrats and a fave from me

Cuteness

Mad says:

The framing, the mix of textures (soft cat fur against round hard stones), the background and not least of all, the angle makes this shot really stand out. Congrats on an unconventional, beautiful capture and a unique eye!

Mad says:

Ha ha, very nice! Unique angle, you probably had to spread out on the ground for this one . Well done! It's dawning on me how completely awesome the reflections in cats' eyes are. I think I can almost see you author reflected somewhere in the eyes in the hi res.

I kind of agree with you author, it does make it unique. Kudos for following your instinct on this.

Lovely! You got down at ground level to get this one. Well-done!! Beautifully caught!

(5 years and 3232 days ago)

I see you
avatar Mad
Mad says:

No doubt about those precious, gem-like eyes! And the lighter coloration around his mouth makes him look quite quirky Judging by the background, it seems you had him sit for the shot, is that so? Just wondering..

Something has caught Minerva's attention. And the camera has caught Minerva. Amazing capture author. Good luck!

Minerva
avatar Mad
Mad says:

The pose is unique in how she turns around, like a model, to look at the camera. The black and white is good too. Too bad the whites are completely blown out, but I guess that can't be helped sometimes when you have to shoot spontaneously in natural light. A good entry..good luck!

Lovely kitten. The shot seems a little shaky though.

Mad says:

Her eyes are such a focal point of this photograph with their green colour reflecting the green in the environment. I would however have cropped out most of the potted plant in the window leaving just a little pink in the frame so that she would be the absolute focus. But that's just me

A ferral cat? It may be nameless, but you've immortalized it in this shot. It seems to be saying something

Black and really beautiful. Are his eyes actually blue or is that the light? Good shot as well, I can see he probably moved the very next second.

Framing, textures, lighting. This one has taken my breath away! Tigger is so gorgeous!! Is it a he or a she and does it bounce on it's tail? lol. A fave from me by the way

She sure does! Cats find the most perfect places to nap, they know how to look beautiful even when they sleep.

She blends right in

Mad says:

As if the other cats in the background weren't enough, you're black, fluffy, reclining subject making eye contact with the camera really makes this shot unique. Well done!
