    Zeke

    I took this of my kitten Zeke, he was on the back of my chair as I was downlaoding photos (he like to watch) is it to orange? I didnt edit except to crop some of the chair out.

    Re: Zeke

    Yes, I would say that overall this image is too orange. OTOH it was just a quick shot and not something you set up so what are you going to do?

    What does bother me about this shot is the format-it is just too wide and not tall enough for my taste. I think it would look a lot better with a small crop from the right and a big crop from the left all the way to the whiskers. Still, is it worth cropping what is in essence a snapshot?
    No, I DON'T need that.

    I either suck at this or I am doing something wrong, if I make it taller, the chair is in the photo....is this any different? The cat being orange makes this harder lol I could bleach him

    Re: Zeke

    I like the fist one actually.
    A study in shades of Orange and Brown.

    I wonder if a little more brown chair would complete it?
    Brown chair, light brown/dark orange, then orange wall.
    With the ginger cat bridging all the shades and joining it together.

    I often have a different viewpoint from MB1
    Yes, to a cat lover it's more than a snapshot !
