This shot made me giggle :-) I wish I could get my cats to pose like this! You've got good detail and a great pose, but I find the background to be a little distracting.

That's a very cute photo of a cat. ;^) Good color, clarity and composition overall. Hard to tell on the stopped motion because this is such an unusual stance/action for a cat to take...does a cat on it's back legs usually move very fast, or was this an easy image to get? Do you know what I'm trying to say? The top images for this challenge will probably have some action that is easily identifiable as being fast/quick. JMO of course. Good luck in the challenge.

thanks, If you are interested in trying this, Here are a few tips.

find a very smooth driving surface

lots of stop and go lights. this photo was taken at a 6 lane intersection.

I was traveling around 30MPH for this photo, speed definately makes different effects.

A Tripod is definately required. I have a custom floor mounted pod in my van. But you can just as easy use a regular tri pod perhaps secure it with seat belts or bungie cords.. just make sure it doesnt rock or tip.
6-10 seconds of exposure seems to be the best from the results i have.

i would also recommend letting someone else drive. I spent 2 hours driving around to get this shot, had to stop every few frames to make sure the lighting was correct camrea in focus etc.....

let me know if you try it id like to see the results.
