 Post comments; my monitor must be a little bright. I see good detail in the darker side, a good transfer from light/shadows. Set up shot. cut a half hole in some black paper for the mouse door. Had my strobe in back difused & shoft box in front. My cat doesnt model as well as vegas. Took coupl tries to get him looking into the hole. Used a little cat food to get his interest. took a couple test shots. Once mickey was ready, I only had couple of tries.

Thanks for the comments, couple of them I would had liked to apply to this image.

Thanks for everyone who took time to vote & comment on this one, It was a fun challenge.

The only thing that distracted me on this pic was the perfection of the black cutout that the cat was looking through... if it had had a jagged edge, something that might actually have been chewed by a mouse, this would have been awesome!

Great concept though.

Very well executed - I can see all ranges in the cat's face, too, by the way.

great eyes and nice capture. The black area takes up too much space IMO but still a great capture.

Clever idea!

clever idea....I would have loved to see either more detail on cat's left eye or a more intense close-up on the only visible eye.

bright area on the bottom is a bit distracting

instead of such large black area, maybe a little "floor" on the bottom would have worked better.

Great idea, and nice subtle lighting on the cat. Ideally, it would be nice to see some dimension to the opening (depth of the wood)

Love the use of negative space and the green eye.

Ok, I feel like a mouse. creative use of negative space.

haha love the idea and great composition. It's too bad the light is only hitting the left half of the cat's face.

wrong "your". "your" is possesive, meaning your thing. you meant "you're" as in you are. sorry ;]

I like the feeling of searching in this photo, the black seems a little to much for me on the top and side.

Oh now. This is GREAT! The sinister look on that kitty's face.
