Wow...I'm surprised to see this one land here. I really enjoyed this photo, and gave it a 9.

Edit:
Congrats on receiving a HM from the jury for this challenge. I'm happy to see this photo receive more acknowledgment from the Jury than what the DPC voters gave it.

I think that the voters may have missed the point that this was an art challenge, not a 'perfect crisp portrait of something you feel comfortable with' challenge. Brilliant shot that I expected to see pulling well over a 6.

4 - Pleased the cat made an appearance, but the oddness and composition isn't gelling with me.

Cat dancing is a lost art. Or at least one we rarely see in the daylight; I suspect there are hootenannies held in the dark in faraway places...

The deceiver? Spookily I can actually see 'his dark majesty' in the reflection. Top shot - completely OOB and very 'fine art'. Love it.

Oh what a tangled web we weave, when at first we practice to deceive.
This has got to be a zeuszen or possibly clive patrick nolan or possibly posthumous????? Now I'm thinking it's probably that damn nuzzer TRYING to be someone else. Tangled, web, deceive?? The title works well with this super fabulous image. 10+
