Very last minute. My roomate found this kitten a few days ago and I thought she'd be perfect for black and white but wasn't quite sure what to do with her.
Not expecting much from this. Probably going to be way downhill from my last couple entries.
Technical: Focus and depth of field: Image comes across as soft and slightly out of focus. Does not appear to be going for a soft focus effect. Brightness and contrast: Several areas near the head, shoulders, and haunches are blown out with no remaining detail.
Reaction: The composition is great, the technicals are what let you down. I notice that the ISO is jacked up to 1600, yet the speed was still only 1/60 and the aperture at 4.5. I think you were hampered by low light more than anything else. I love the look on the cat's face, and overall a very playful and pleasing composition. I would really like to see this one redone, with better lighting and focus. Do it in color with Christmas ribbon and paper, and you could probably sell it as a Christmas card.
