 A cat AND a flower...it's doomed.

This wasn't set up at all...dare I even call it a decisive moment? Kinda? Anyway, I love how the whiskers look...the crispness of the daisy contrasted with the quick hint of feline.

He beat the crap out of the daisy right after I grabbed this shot.

Dang, this is absolutely phenomenal, had i scored this shot, i probably wouldve given you a 9 or 10. Love the tones and the simplicity. Really nicely done, adding to faves most definitely.

Emotive and timeless - really, really like this. Who needs to see the whole cat? :) Excellent choice of focus.
