This a a shot of Zeus, he is a house cat that is acually not much smaller than a adult bobcat. I grabbed this shot has he lept from the deck to go out and hunt down what ever was squeaking in the woods. I like this shot, but I would like to know what others think... Does it work?

    The second one is by far the best of the three. The last seems a bit soft or out of focus, but the expression is classic cat. :D

    The first one has a nice motion blur to it, but I think the angle (I would have liked to have seen more of the head and face) takes away from the shot, and the car in the background doesn't help the picture.

    A few more tweaks, taking into account the background, composition and focus and you'll get yourself a winner with Zeus!

    If you get a chance to reshoot #3, try focusing directly on the eyes and see if you like the results better.

    Happy shooting! clap.gif
