My appreciation of favourite felines wouldn't be complete without this feisty lady. Some of you will remember she was the one who caused all the trouble with the poor males in Dave's lovely series a while back. She is a real spirited cat and a beautiful specimen of her species!! This image doesn't do her justice, but its the only one I have.

All comments and critiques always welcome and appreciated and thanks for looking.

Man, she's pretty, but that furrowed brow says to me "I think the sound of your lens focusing is quite interesting". :)

The lighting and texture in your shot are very nice indeed, and I like the framing.

You have a natural eye for effective compositions. The close up image here has perfect exposure and sharpness to my eye, and the little head turn puts it over... Another very successful image.. Thanks for sharing you work here.

A lovely shot. I like the slight head tilt. Great job.
