Its the clothes in the BG that ruin this for me. Great cat. Great focus. Light is a bit harsh, but the eyes are awesome.

I am afraid not. You have just made it pink. Anyway the main thing that bugged me is still there in the background.

yeah I i thought it looked funny almost too light. Seems to have lost the detail....I now know not to take a pic of the cat on laundry day. :)

By all means take pictures on laundry day...just cropp them out if you get them in the shot
:D

I like the intensity in the kitty's eyes...I think it is still a good shot despite the clothes...a tighter crop maybe? I have a preferance for BW so I gave it a shot...hope you don't mind. Good first post.

Welcome. I like the original shot. The clothes in the bg are distracting, but I think just darkening the bach area of the image and maybe adding a bit of blur back there will take all attention away from it. I still like that the clothes are there as it lends tothe setting the cats is in,just tone it down . Should improve it. Natalies b&w crop is also good in a different way

Ok yeah i love the B&W with the crop also....Fell free to play with any photos I post for I am here to learn.....This was shot with a canon G1 Powershot W/ A 420ex flash......But i am happy to say that I have seen the error of my ways....And 9:00 Am Monday I will be shooting with a Canon rebel T2 Gonna give film a shot.....Kinda not shure how it will all work out cause I have been spoiled with the shoot like hell and delete later. Thanks for all the replys! -U
