 Womble and the fish tank. A source of great delight. She's a little foster kitten from the spca who's been staying with me for the last week. She spends hours watching the fish.

vastly underrated. THe focus, flash on the cat adn fish are superb. If you let your eyes go a little blurry you really have nice composition. I just had to comment because I have been at the bottom before. You show good creativity and that is much better than a formulaic wonk!

This needs a log more DOF, most of the cat is out of focus.

I like the idea behind this image, but there are a few things that I think might help make it better. The focus is on the cat and some great detail can be seen, but that makes the details of the fish, which are also part of the focus of the image (per the title) unaccessable.

The colors look rich and beautiful, but without the focus they are lost as a haze. Perhaps lighting from above or the side of the aquarium might have helped instead of/or in tandem with the one from behind the cat.

Great idea, all of the necessary points of interest are there, just need to bring some more focus in to let the fish and items in the aquarium add their details. I gave a 4.

So out of focus and overexposed that I did not even realize that was a fish. This would have been a great shot with the right explosure and a deeper depth of field.

This photo would be a more effective if the fish were in sharper focus. Excellent example of passing time tho:)

I feel that there's not really a subject here to grab the interest, as both the cat and the fish look out of focus.

This is not an easy image to pull off. Unfortunately this attempt has hot spots on the cat and fish. Looking at this photo though I get the feeling that the fish is more the subject than the cat, therefore I might have attempted the same shot with the fish being in focus.

I like the idea, but for me I think I would have focused on the fish, not the cat.

I think this would have been more powerful a bit further back. Nice job though.
