Wow, you matched the tones perfectly. Well done, sir! :)

Well, obviously, it isn't as good as the original, but then of course its score was much bigger, so that was a given. Neat image, so to speak, and you have a fine handle on the grammer, linguistically speaking (so to speak) etc. etc.

Great attempt to emulate a classic but I don't think anyone could improve on the original.

Yours is way better than mine. You should have been at least two places higher.

too much noise and poor contrast

Not knowing what the original looked like, I can't comment as to the improvement. In general, this is too grainy for me.

Excellent! This really does justice to the spirit of the original. Love the wild colors!

Good job in trying to get the same feel of the original. It's not an improvement though.

I hope you don't take this the wrong way, but my preference is actually the original photo. There's something particularly spooky in that one with it looking like the kitty is ready to leap at you. This one it looks like kitty is ready to scratch out the carpet. Nice imitation of color tho!

This cat doesn't look mad. He looks like he's eating a treat you left on the floor for him! But you certainly did match the colors well.

very cool that you kept the colors the same as the original - i think you could have gotten sharper focus maybe with a faster shutter speed or more light - great composition... it must have been tough to get your cat to stay in one spot long enough for a quick snap

IMHO the idea is to take a shot and improve on it, to me this isn't much of an improvement, though at least with your shot the cat does actually look angry.

LOL, almost as good as the original. the challenge was to make it better, your image has the same cruel processing, but the POV is less interesting
