I was trying to use my flash. I feel bad that I bought it and haven't used it at all. By the time I figured out how to set it, Brandon was sleepy and didn't want to open his eyes anymore. Camera was hand held about 8 inches in front of the subject, flash pointed straight up and bounced off a magazine held directly above the flash and angled towards the subject. Flash was set on ttl, camera was in manual mode.
This wasn't really taken for this challenge, just as practice for me. I work in a call center, so I do know something like this is needed to remind us to calm down!

Great white contrast, if one item on this can had excentuaion, it would just startle and emphasize; like the eyes or something.

Fantastic closeup. If I tried to get that close to my cat with a camera, she would probably run for the front door - and out.

Such a sweet photo. Love the detail of the fur. Great that it is kind of white all over as it really portrays the peacefulness. I am not too keen on the font you used, but over all it is ok. The outer border could have been dropped for simplicity. Well done.

... and let me have 18 hours a day set aside to catnap. As a poster I think the photo could be a bit smaller (or border bigger).
