 Taking pictures of cats (especially Vanilla) is always interesting. After a big yawn that I thought would be the picture I would post, my finger twitched once more, this is the result. Only adjusted saturation, and focus.

The expression on your cat's face is great. I think the lighting (would like to see the face a touch brighter) and busy background hurt you on this one. Since it was advanced, you might have cloned the small dark strip on right-hand side for a higher score.

LOL... peroty photographs my guinea pig and he says that the pigger has a way of moving at just the last second. So this is a great title. I love the photo itself as well.

I know that cat! I'm glad I'm still allowed to sleep inside the house! :)

2 - Not sure what you were going for here, but I'll use your title as a guide. A rotate and more refined crop would have likely helped this.

This really cracks me up for some reason.

wow, now there's an expression! *smile* Love the title. Seems to match the mood well. I don't know whether you have any editing programs, but if you do, I'd have tried to select, copy and paste this furbaby onto a new layer so that you could have blurred the background quite a bit more to make the focus the face and perhaps, cropped out a bit more of the right hand side of the background area. But, I can SO relate to this baby's expression! *smile*
