 I saw him during the walk around the neighborhood, sitting in the middle of the road and keeping an eye on his house. I thought it might work in BW. The duotone actually worked better for me. It turned out to be quite a challenge trying to keep all the details.

I love the way the lack of contrast sets a brooding, heavy, murky atmosphere. Fabulous work.

Very nice composition, but for me it's just a little too dark.

I like the use of negative space in this one. Almost mysterious.

Rather ominous with the subdued grays and the black cat.

Great use of negative space. Could use a bit of shadows/highlights (if you're using PS) to bring out the cat a bit more. Other than that, awesme pic!

Nice low key and I can still make out some detail in the fur. Can't stand cats, but this is a nice shot. Looks like he is sitting there contemplating his next crime.

I would've liked a little more contrast. maybe with 'replace color' in PS just lighten the street a bit more.

Fantastic composition. I thought the cat was sitting on the beach watching the early morning fog roll in.
