A frame does not have to be square. This is awesome, and it's going into my fav's.

Buzzrock, I'm not going to go trolling through the comments looking for people who said this "wasn't framed."

I'm just going to say it is a priceless image and I hope you think of a way to market it so others can admire it.

Outstanding effort here. The white of the felines perimeter plays wonderful against the plate, food and the background. Congratulations on your top 20 finish.

Good, strong colors.

This is great, nice job! bumping to 9. Good luck!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 06/20/2006 03:27:38 PM
Thanks for the smile! This has some print potential (clean up the red area with some cloning after the challenge). Good luck in the challenge.

love it

You would had needed some darker food in the bottle to get it more like ying-yang Maybe two dots, one black and one white could help. I think you haven't tried to make it look like ying-yang so it's very good like it's now. I like the lighting and the simple composition catches the eye.

Beautiful color
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 06/19/2006 08:41:23 PM
Very clever image. Good choice to use primary colors. Thought provoking concept. Good technicals. The only negative is basic rules don't allow you to clone the distracting defects from the bowl and background.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 06/19/2006 05:56:02 PM
4 - Good control of the whites. Like the concept. More 'food' to balance this out, especially with the title/concept and the 'bits' around on the red fixed (at time of shooting mostly - as realize difficult in basic pp), make this better in my opinion.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 06/19/2006 10:13:36 AM
Neat, I like it.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 06/18/2006 01:29:15 PM
Love the 3 contrasts in colors (red,white,blue),shapes(square,circular,ying yang) and textures( hard plastic,soft fur,crunchy food).

Lovely cat (looks like mine). I'm sure the challeng said something about foreground and background though...
Gotta be worth 6

Nice colors, simple but bold composition.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 06/15/2006 06:54:05 PM
without the title i don't even notice the resemblence which is a shame, this is really wonderful even if i hate cats ;)
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Very well done and unique, I believe top 10 here, love the colours as well as composition. 10 from me.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 06/15/2006 04:24:39 PM
Nice composition and use of color.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 06/15/2006 03:01:29 PM
Great colour, great focus - but the competition did say the frame had to be in the foreground - but like the picture.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 06/15/2006 10:52:19 AM
Great capture. Love the colours and compostion. Might be a tad oversharpened though?
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 06/15/2006 09:02:02 AM
Sooooooooooooooo wonderful! I love this!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 06/15/2006 07:03:45 AM
Pretty picture. If you only had a black cat, it would fit the title as well as it fits the challenge.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 06/15/2006 01:33:54 AM
interesting shot, but "framing" was to be in the foreground.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 06/14/2006 09:32:52 PM
love the colors, textures and crop..9
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 06/14/2006 08:58:30 PM
Great image! Really awesome, not just sweet. :) I only wish the red background didn't have a lot of distracting elements in it; otherwise, great picture and perfect challenge interpretation. Well done.

I do love this photo but I am missing the foreground framing the background.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 06/14/2006 05:16:52 PM
very creative, good work, keep it up.-9-
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 06/14/2006 03:57:54 PM
Simple composition, limited colour palettes, excellent composition. I like it as is but would also love to see another version with cat looking up at camera.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 06/14/2006 10:11:09 AM
Just perfect, and so well done.....I love the composition and the colors work so well together.....A well deserved "9".....
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 06/14/2006 10:07:46 AM
Clever idea. Framed by the foreground not really. But entertaining enough to forgive...
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 06/14/2006 09:37:43 AM
Nice... I think this could be one of the top 5 :)
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 06/14/2006 09:35:10 AM
HEE HEE - I like the idea of it, but that red background just really puts me off. I think if it were white, it would tie in with the kitty and give it more of the feeling you eluded to with the title. Darling though. If the kitty were lookig up at you, then it'd really be over the top. ;~D

 06/14/2006 06:49:00 AM
nice photo goes well with your title
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 06/14/2006 06:20:17 AM
while it's a great shot, I can't see a frame in the 'foreground' framing what's in the background...or is it just me?
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 06/14/2006 04:59:39 AM
Great idea. Could sell tons of postcards...
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 06/14/2006 03:33:10 AM
Don't see a frame, nice pic although
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Cool shot!

The stuff in the top right corner is distracting.
