Potrait of a Rat (toy)

[NotCooked]

Gd evening every1 im pretty new to photography.. was playing around with my cam and shot this pic of my rat stuff toy from IKEA.. shot with a pentax k-x, post-processed with lightroom

exif:
iso: 400
aperture: F4.5
shutter speed: 1/13s

1. in what area is critique to be sought?
Composition, overall potrait feel

2. what one hopes to achieve with the piece of work?
As a practice for shooting potrait shots, I gave it a shot and hope for C&C to see how can i furthur inprove

3. under what circumstance is the picture taken? (physical conditions/emotions)
Was just fiddling with my cam in my bedroom in the middle of the afternoon when i took the shot

4. what the critique seeker personally thinks of the picture
I think the fur of the rat is a lil soft

like the bokeh and the fact that you have brought life into a toy

composition is nicely placed imho

just didnt like that whisker to be cut off (i am being anal today ha ha)


p/s if only there was some catchlight in its eyes ha ha ha !!! :bsmilie:

:thumbsup:

Could have re-arranged the pillow in the BG... kinda distracts a lil IMO. ditto with the whiskers being cut off...
