| This is a great triptych! I'm glad it was presented in the "pick your favorite" thread so we could see it again! |

Hello Molly,
aren't you a cutie! running through the gate, making fun of that photographing guy who was following you around all day long.. ;)
your eye looks stunning today. did you use new make-up or something like that? :P
And, that portrait of you, you look so tough. Ben did good, what do you think?

Nice pic! A TINY bit overzealous on the saturation on the reds and greens on the left and a very tiny bit soft on the segment to the right... also, could have done without the blurry blob in the foreground...
Still, an excellent pic in general. |

Hello Molly!
Compositionally, I think you have included some interesting shots on this one. They work together well, and give several different insights to this cat. The only picture I might suggest changing would be the one on the far left. I almost think it would better balance the shot if the cat were jumping the other way, and going out of the frame, so to speak. Likewise, the one on the right could be mirrored, as well, and it would be facing out of the frame as well. I *think* this would give a better impression of balance to the shot.
Technically, the focus, exposure, etc. is good. Nothing dramatic or earthshattering, but nothing that can be critically assessed, either. The red in the first picture really draws the attention, and it is interesting that each shot has something that seems out of focus. I didn't realize it when I was voting, but the first shot has motion blur, the second has a shallow dof around the eye, and the third has that oof "thing" in front of Molly. The overall effect, then, is that the compilation is out of focus, but in actuality, it is not.
Overall, good work, and definitely not a score to be ashamed of, especially considering how outspoken some forum-goers are about "pet shots."
If I need to further explain or clarify myself, please feel free to contact me.

| The picture on the right is great. The middle picture is a nice detail shot, but could have been smaller and cropped at the top and bottom. The one on the left doesn't do a lot for me. Perhaps a different layout and swapping out the left pic would have improved this. |

| Great set - But I feel the black border is to top heavy. Love the first pic! |

| Since the eye (or at least my eye) generally moves left to right, I think switching the left and right images would have worked better. In other words, have the cat 'leaving' from the right side of the triptych. As it is, the cat is jumping 'into' it. Nice pics otherwise, and a great action shot of it jumping through the gate. |

| Funny how it's the little things that count, the red bell ties in so beautifully with the gate and keeps me looking for more interesting details. Lovely. |
