I dont think the relection in the floor works for me as the line the rub makes cuts the frame in half forcing the viewer to choose between either the upper or lower half of the frame. The lighitng also dosent seem to help capture the tranquil mood that should be evoked with a sleeping cat and the slight blue cast on the face also makes it look odd.

Personally I think I oiuwld have gone for a tigher crop on the face here

Thanks. i did a cropped version of it so that it could fit into a square frame for my friend's wall. Also edited it to black and white and soften it to match the black frame... I agree, looks better with a tighter crop

personally... i feel that colours can be pumped more... a bit too dull for my liking... but yet again that is IMHO...
