    Almo,

    Great shot, and Trevor, what a great use of the lens.

    Ah, mine's so cliche, yet I wanted to contribute

    The cat kicks much butt, but the fork is just a fork. To make it interesting you might have put a few drops of blood around it (or blood like substance). Or even a green bean speared across the tines.

    Thanks for posting!

    Good suggestion;
    Steak rare on a fork.
    (bread & hot sauce)
    Mark.
    The cat is still better.
    Mark.

    With millions of cats around, I figure a cat is about as mundane as it gets. Here's my attempt to make the mundane interesting.


    If the first one isn't eye catching enough for you, try the second one.
