This is my favorite of the cat shots. The detail in the eyes is amazing. 9

I guess I'm not seeing it, but the background doesn't distract me like some have mentioned. I think the waves set a contrast to the roundness of his face, making it subtly noticeable, low key if you will ;). I love this picture and I want that cat!

Also, whoever said "boss" I think I see what you mean!

This is an awesome shot, but the background takes away from the presentation... you should make sure to have a solid black background... I can see a wrinkly cloth and it's a tad distracting... try to put the background further from the cat that it won't catch the light as much making it darker...playing with the mid tones in the levels adjustment can also help eliminate that background a bit too...

I hate pet photo's for public consumption, and I score most of them low as they are generally OOF, blurred or boring, but this is just magnificent, especially the whiskers........

There were several cat portraits in this challenge, and IMO this one is far and away the best of that bunch.

Neat subject and composition. The background on left competes for some of my attention.
