 This is Sneekers begging for a treat. I set up flashed behind her to the left/up and right/side.

Here's a video of her begging, from another day:

Cleopatra's Cat by the Spin Doctors. It'll probably be muted by YouTube eventually for copyright. :-/

I wonder what symphony he/she is conducting:-) Nice shot with some action from the cat. Lighting and focus are good. Some nice details in the fun and paws. Would have liked the left paw to be a tad lower so it does not obscure the face a bit - but with pet portraits expecially when they are in the act of doing something it is especially hard to get it *perfect*. I like the action and the lighting & focus is good but there is something missing...I just can't put my finger on it. Hmmm, maybe I am thinking it needs -just- one more element to compliment the cat. Something like a backdrop of instruments (bokeh or shallow depth of field) to complement the action going on.

Good pose, well captured. Looks more like a boxer to me, but I like the title and the concept. Good blurred bg. 8
