 Draped a bright red, furry "poncho" my wife had over our cat's favorite chair and waited for him to settle. Once he did, I grabbed the green Xmas ball and began popping a few shots off. Getting used to using my new flash unit (bounced off ceiling) and was only shooting in AV mode, which resulted in long exposure and many blurred frames but this one turned out pretty nice. Tweaked levels, curves, hue/sauturation slightly. Cloned out an ugly wrinkle in the material and a few spots. Sharpened slightly.

Good image of the cat, but did not care for the red.

4 - Looks like you have gone to a bit of effort - not sure that the background being this 'bold' is helping bring out Noah's features and colors, same with the color of the ball. Like to have seen Noah looking at camera or even just to discern the color of his eye's more. The inner frame detracts in my opinion and this is too tightly cropped.

Very red and a litte oversharpened, IMO, nice kat though.

Noah doesn't look particularly thrilled with this photo shoot! Cute shot, but I found the lighting a bit too harsh.
