This is just such a clear shot that I had to give it a high score. Very cute capture. The shadows bother me, and I'm not sure that it wouldn't be just as good with much of the top cropped off (perhaps making it a horizontal shot cropped just below the shadow on the back). 7
Is the cat really that closely matched to the color of the couch or cushion it's on, or did it take that tint from the flash. Beautiful cat. Very unique color. Don't really like the quilt at the rump and blanket on the right. Maybe if you had cropped it off just behind it's elbow where the dark line is. Something to think about. Then the distracting stuff would not be there, including the dark line. Still a good photo.
