Great shot. Demonstrates that photography is more than merely point-n-shoot. You kept the background simple, keeping the viewer focus on the main event. You had the cat interacting with its surroundings, something I didn't see in any of the other submissions.

Fun shot, but not uniquely creative or difficult to light, and certainly not worthy of a challenge win (as is the case with a lot of the winning photos on this blog).

I mean no offense to you, and I'm not trying to rain on anyone's parade, but I did work more creative than this in the Tabletop Photography class I had in college, 20 years ago.

we all eagerly wait for your "worthy", "more creative" contributions to the challenges, mr. webpro :D

See, stanic, you went and took offense to my comment. And I never meant it to be a personal affront to you, DigitalTed or anyone else.

My remarks were a largely benign-but-constructive criticism on the creative aesthetics of some of the shots that win challenges on this site, from a former pro photographer with 10+ years in the field - nothing more.

Let's not have these post-contest discussions devolve into "My telephoto is bigger and more impressive than yours" games, if you catch my drift.

an offense is an offence, no matter how much BS words you wrap it up into

and I would still like to see those pics of yours
