    I don't find this one as compelling as most of your photos. It seems to be a bit of a randome snapshot, rather than that feeling of a differnent vision you often convey.

    Hi LL, Thanks for your view. You are right about the less compelling ability of the shot. I am thinking how to better depict the 2 shivering cats.

    i feel if you had something to give it a better context, it would be better. Like snow or an icicle or something. It has a cold look, but i know a lot of people wouldn't know what's going on. Also, get lower, and get eye to eye.

    I can see they are feeling miserable. Are they strays ? Maybe a saucer of warm milk would have been the difference with them lapping at it, or something.

    I think Brent has it right. If you could see them in an empty lot, or in a beaten soiled carboard box, or in an abandoned building...any of these and a million more would bring them (and their plight) further into focus. And would make me absolutely cry!! They're pitiful as it is!

    Hi Brent, Bobby and D, Thanks for the suggestions. Bobby, I am not sure whether they are strays as they stayed in front of a house.
