Thanks Donna, Crystal, Peter, and Linda! I appreciate your comments! Zack is such a ham... #7123041Ben M. Trapnell February 08, 2009
Sam, this is spectacular! Everything about the image is in wonderful harmony. The blue eyes, while so very nicely subtle, really pull the view back again and again. I hope you find a winner's tag underneath it in the near future. #7140095Cesar J. La Rosa February 09, 2009
I agree with Ben. Everything here works perfectly well, but the composition of this image, the lighting and the selective coloring make this cat portrait unique and absolutely beautiful. This photograph tells us a story.Ellen Devenny March 25, 2009
