    I have to say I'm pretty sure its the eyes.....I like this pic. Good focus, good expression, and i like the framing.

    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
