Cat. His name is Happy

Got a thin skin? Then look elsewhere. Post a link to an image that you've made, and invite others to offer their critiques. Honesty is encouraged, but please be positive in your constructive criticism. Flaming and just plain nastiness will not be tolerated. Please note that this is not an area for you to showcase your images, nor is this a place for you to show-off where you have been. This is an area for you to post images so that you may share with us a technique that you have mastered, or are trying to master. Typically, no more than about four images should be posted in any one post or thread, and the maximum size of any side of any image should not exceed 950 px.

Forum rules
Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy. So please do offer your critique of the images of others; your opinion is important, and will help everyone here enjoy their visit to far greater extent.

Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature.

Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.

Please also ensure that you have a meaningful location included in your profile. Please refer to the FAQ for details of what "meaningful" is.

A beautiful animal portrait. The background is very complimentry and the cat is supurbly posed. This image needs to printed quite large and framed. It would look stunning on any wall.

Excellent! Although I saw the Cat II post first! The only thing is I find the right hand side just slightly distracting. Is it a leaf/tree caught in the sunlight??

A beautiful pussy cat! Actually Alex, yours looks exactly like the cat my Sister in law had!

Stormy.........perhaps it's a glowing kind of native endagered species that this introduced preditor is about to kill? Then again it could be a light bulb? :roll: :oops: :oops:

Only kidding but I could'nt help myself! I'll leave all that to another OT post!

Cats are quite amazing creatures with personalities that somehow seem to translate accross into images of them (obviously more so if they are your cat). My mother was a cat lover and had several of them, they were all so animated in their personalities I could'nt believe it. If they were pis*ed off with you it could go on for days, but if they loved you they would'nt leave you alone. Nice shots.

This cat pic is excellent. The DOF is appropriately shallow wihout being too shallow and the cat has been caught at a good moment.

Hi

Postby yeocsa on Tue May 31, 2005 11:08 am

Thanks. The glow on the right is the reflection from the leaves - can be distracting. I still have hundreds of pics to process and don't have the time to remove or crop it out.

regards,

Arthur
