Pic #1:

1. Right ear got chop off abruptly.
2. Watch for your negative space. Too much on the left and made the cat looked like it's being driven to the left.

Pic #2:

Are you trying to show us it's emotion? The dangling leaves do not work.

One thing to take note. Eyes has to be sharp when taking face to face. Just like your first shot. Good try!

#1 is pretty nice .. tight shot but like what Ryan mentioned .. the ear got chopped off

#2 is confusing for me cos I am not sure where the emphasis is at. The cat is not getting the attention as it is overexposed and the only item exposed properly is the out of focus leaves/vines. Why don't you try to post process this by reducing the exposure value so the cat is better exposed.

I wasn't trying to show anything in particular with picture 2. Just thought the balance of red and green was nice. =p I did attempt to post it in the critique corner asking if the leaves were distracting. Thanks for the advice!

And if I adjust the exposure value, wouldn't the surrounding red bricks be underexposed?

I'll shoot with these tips in mind nexttime. Thanks! =p

You have to be sure of your subject. What you want your viewers to see what you see is important.

Keep shooting and learn along the way.
