Cat is on computer screen. Cabinet door with mini fish bowl on top. It took a long exposure to keep the cat at the right exposure. Popped some bounced strobes on the foreground. Post: Adjusted levels, cloned out doorknob.

I loved this photo. Laughed till I cried when I saw it. I am ever so curious as to how you managed to get your cat to lick his "chops" like that. Perhaps the use of honey or other similar product. Congratulations on a job well done. Top of the scale for me.
The idea is clear enough, but the execuction just seems to be lacking something. The picture doesn't grab me or wow me at all, and the cat's face seems a little soft too.
Great minds think alike! I was planning all week to shoot the exact same thing (with the advantage of the orginal props), but I didn't have time to borrow my neighbor's cat. Thanks for saving me the trouble. The focus on the cat is a little soft, and some color in the fish bowl would be nice, but the tongue is priceless. 9
