Lovely cat skillfully photographed. Those eyes set off the sleek fur, lovely face. He seems so well behaved. You have shown a fine contrast between the cat colors and what it lies upon. Thanks for sharing and best wishes in the contest.

Most welcome indeed!

Wow, certainly doesn't look feral but then I guess they are very conditioned to people. Wonderful black and white image. Thanks for sharing and good luck in the contest.

Cool!
I dunno' anything about taking holidays on Greek islands but I know a lot about cats and I'm enjoying this fine looking portrait of this one very much!
He looks a lot like my 'Uhura' ! ( a former Feral who was gifted to me by a Witch and who's now my beloved pet and 'Familiar Spirit' ! )

This sweet black cat looks content to get a photo of him taken. Your composition shades tones and use of black and white highlights him perfectly. Thank you for sharing

A beautiful portrait of this black cat with glossy black fur & golden eyes as he waits until you have finished your meal for his expected treat
Beautiful composition framing and lighting. Taken with superb camera techniques and razor sharp focus. Good luck in the contest.

This pet photo is like a window into the animal kingdom. The details and composition are outstanding, making me feel like I'm right there with your pet. Good luck!

thanks Seshadri for the good comments not my pet though was on holiday

Comment from Jessica Prophitt
I would've loved to see a more interesting angle. Also the black and white filter make the cat's already dark fur appear dull and we are not able to appreciate the eye color. The cropping is unusual as the cat's ears are pretty close to the top. This leads they eyes to the cats crossed legs and chest area as they are closer to the middle of the photo. I see a lot of potential here. Do not stop taking photos! Keep going and keep up the work! I look forward to seeing more of your photos.

I see you are new on here so the 2 you are giving me i will let go but don,t agree with your assessment at all,but its only your opinion and thats fine,sort of laughed at the 2 though.

reply by Jessica Prophitt on 16-Oct-2023

Respectfully- You are allowed your opinion. Being new on here does not devalue my opinion. I have worked in photography for quite a few years. I?m trying to give back positive feedback. You out your photo on a website that asks for reviews and there is mine.

reply by the author on 16-Oct-2023

yes thats fine and i also don,t agree with giving fives for everything on here regardless on content etc,just think you were wrong on your assessment on this ,and i welcome someone who can be honest rather than giving five everytime just feel you need to reign in a bit thats all

reply by Jessica Prophitt on 16-Oct-2023

Your reply is valid. I respect your opinion.
