Comment from Kathy Banich
Whew, I'm glad I caught this one - I've been wanting to offer a review but got busy with the Holiday.
This is a very appealing image that adds wonderful scale, depth and interest to the scene. The kitty, lounging at the entrance of the gate certainly adds to the story as well as a nice splash of color, which captures the viewer(s) eye (i.e., a strong focal point). The feline along with the open gates, appear to offer a welcomed invite to step into the scene and check out what's behind the stone wall.
The image is perfectly dialed in with all settings and has successfully achieved a tack sharp, straight image with nice lighting contrast. The exposure is balanced and avoids both clipping and blocking.
Best of luck in the contest.

A beautiful picture of the Ginger Tom Cat relaxing in the gateway into a sunlit backyard in Greece, with what appears to be a Bone growing over the archway above. Artistic composition framing and lighting taken with superb camera techniques and sharp focus.

This is such a lovely shot of a backyard in Greece. The cat puts life into the picture.! Your framing is excellent, and the interaction of light, shadows, and colours is visually appealing. Good luck!

Very good entry for the contest. I like the angle you used for this, showing another doorway framed through the first frame. The alert cat in the foreground creates added interest. Very good camera techniques. Lovely composition. Good luck in the contest. Suzanne

A good looking entry into the competition posted here! Your fine composition offers us a classical example of framing in photography. Exposure and sharpness are good. Like the cat. Well done and good luck!

Comment from soulfeeder
Such a pleasant scene of this open gate showing the greeneries with the light and shadows that interplayed and the most comfortable cat. I also like the vines. Excellent cropping, angle, exposure setting, and focus. The clarity of textures of the stony arch and its shape is beautiful. I also enjoy the depth of field. A stellar entry to this Frame Contest.

This is a great entry into the contest. The archway is a perfect frame to the courtyard beyond. The cat in the entrance way is perfect! The focus and clarity, tones and exposure are excellent. This picture would be one I would love to hang on a wall in my house.
