Wow. Look at those eyes! I would have loved a little less of a crop though so I could see those ears.

Great quote. But for me, I have to switch it around.... "Is art like love..?"

So.. the image- Proper Weston crop; slightly high contrast. In fact, when I think of his peppers they beg for personification. And so does this cat. This is a well executed cat portrait in the style of Weston. Not necessarily his subject matter. Oh, and too bad for me... I really don't like cats. Terrible allergies. But I can't help but bump this one up on my second look. Good luck!

I wanted to do a cat photo, but my cat's fur doesn't have a cool pattern like yours. 7
