A beaver? Ha. The circular effect of the lensbaby adds to the tension of your beaver battle.

Greetings from the Critique Club:

Pleased to pick this one up - as you know I didn't vote on this one and my comment in voting was pranksterish.

I think what I like most about this is its distinctiveness - it looks like one yours. Also, the whole image feels more than a little dangerous to me - the animal seems exotic; a panther perhaps.... I'm immediately reminded of images of the Beast of Bodmin. The leash looks lethal, like the trail of some special effects bullet - indeed the end appears to stop prior to the beast like a bullet frozen in mid air.

The tones are just fine and contribute to the feeling of the image, conspiring to reveal and obscure with simultaneous effect.

Compelling and distinctive.

Paul

it's hard to tell because the photo's blurry, but she's actually a weasel monkey.

I think your leash is getting stuck in the bushes.

in my top 5 favorites. The energy in the rope pulls me to the object(cat? Dog?black hole?) love how I keep getting pulled back in to reexamine the object.

Nice leading lines or line that is.

Transcendental tug-o'-war. And oddly compelling too. I probably would not hang this on my wall, or at least not permanently, but if I wrote a really good psychological thriller I would ask you if I could use this for the cover. 8. Thank you.

I think posthumous took this with his left hand while walking his pet beaver. In my top 5 for this challenge.

A bit too blurred for me.

This is screaming posthumous at me. Who else would engage in such an artistic tug-of-war?

Without the title, this image is reduced in stature. With it, an entire scene unfolds.

Don't really know what to say other than to favorite this.

Back to comment... Black cat spooky! It almost looks like he's been pierced by a beam of light! Awesome!
