A shot of my hard drive reflecting my cat, Stone. This is NOT a mirror. It is just a large round very smooth reflecting object located within the hard drive 'shell'. I can only hope that everyone realizes this and does not vote incorrectly, as I AM within the challenge requirements.

Meets the Challenge: Yes Artistic Merit (Would I print/frame/hang it?): 8 Creativity (Did a lot of thought go into this photo?): 10 Technical (Focus/DOF/Lighting/Etc): 9 Composition (Subject well-positioned and framed): 9 WOW Factor (Is the photo interesting?): 9
Nice! I am still boggled by how you did it. I really like the kitty even tho it is incredibly blurry and fake! I just like how clean and smooth your H D is because mine is all scratched...9
Nice trick! The only way I can figure this being done is: take a great outdoor photo of the cat (blue sky), print it, then line it up above the hard drive with good lighting and SNAP! I hope you haven't had to "defend" yourself from being DQed. It's a wonderful effect shot. (Did I get it right? no score change either way.........) 9 Swash
Ordinarily I'd shout – NO BLOOMIN CATS! But this is a truly superb shot, so I can't. I laughed for ages… This is the best pet picture I've seen for a long time. Judging by the lighting, I'd say this was done in direct sunlight to get the cat lit properly. Not easy, and I expect it took a few goes getting the cat right. I can only award this a best of breed picture, but it deserves to do well by wit alone… (10) Really like the inventiveness and style…
wow. how in the world did you get a cat to stand in the exact right place for the shot. really cool. also good thinking to use a hard drive for a reflection
Aw! What a cute cat! This one definently made me laugh and smile. One of the best and more original submissionsposted this week. The bright orange and the dark blue work perfectly for this photo! Would be great to see in the top 5. Excellent job!! **10**
