Welll, this is really beautiful!
The title fits this piece perfectly. the cat is gorgeous. Anywho.

The angle on this piece is beautiful. The piece is zoomed really beautifully. I love how focused it is. Nothing is blurry on the cat, only in the background, what is what you want! :la: The cat's eyes are gorgeous, and the fact the lighting is so great, further emphasizes that.

I really love the close zoom and angle, it ups the impact and dynamics tenfold.

I like the crop and composition, but I'd remove a touch of the back, and maybe leave a bit more of the ears showing. It's still really powerful the wasy it is, only a touch tight, but hey, cozy is nice too!

All in all, I really love this piece. It has some impressive power and depth to it. It also has wonderful dynamics that really show off your beautiful cat.

This is a well done cat portrait. Wonderful work! :clap:

We were just outside and she was just kind of was spacing out. She was really relaxed and I just laid out on my stomach off the the side of her and just started clicking away. I got like 100 photos that all looked about the same. My tip is just be casual about taking photos of cats. And don't try to hard to get the perfect photo. I just let it happen. :D
