Catchlight and whiskers make the image just right. I like the layered background too.

Little poser :jump:

A stunning image. The slight head tilt and cute expression are superb, as is the smooth and complementary backdrop.

Classic shot, very appealing! I too like the gradations of colour in the background.

Superb work Guy, colours and rendition of the BG/DOF has worked very well, it does look a little dark on my monitor and could probably do with a little bit of levels adjustments. What great details and expression, a fine capture indeed..

Kind regards,
