I like the close up, but the photo, overall, is much too dark for my taste. I would love to see more light on the cat's face. The whiskers do look pretty cool in this shot though.
The way the whiskers (especially the ones above the eyes) are much more illuminated than the rest of the face is really distracting to me here and it really takes away from my personal enjoyment of the shot. The focus is great here, and aside from barely clipping that right ear off the framing is great as well. An impressive shot. 7
a lovely kitty .. unfortunately her dark color doesnt really pop on that bg, and esp not backlit. it's a bit oversharpened too .. but it's a lovely lovely kitty :)
Needs to be lightened some. But then I realize the cat is dark. I love the white whiskers in contrast against his dark fur. Really makes them stand out. Beautiful expression in the eyes....like.."hurry up cause I'm getting tired of this and gonna run." Nice macro with good dof. Just a hair lighter is all it need. I'd give it an 8. PTL
