Did some PP on this one and though I could give it a high-key approach. If I succeeded or not it's up to you. :D

I like the shot. LOL cat looks kinda pissed... did you use a flash to annoy it like so? My cat runs if it sees my camera dunno why, its kinda skittish.
Can someone point me to something explaining what high key is?

Nice.
But still a bit flat for my taste.
Here is a tiny touch of pp by me.

Samsen, I think the contrast is a bit too strong...godd idea anyway.
AlphaChicken, here's a link to a high key society. Maybe you'll get a better idea. http://flickr.com/groups/highkey/

ª-Chiken:
This is more direct LINK (http://flickr.com/groups/highkey/discuss/72057594107741742/) of Shimpu's referred site.
Also you may find this definition interesting. When there, don't forget to check the link for LowKey. Sometimes looking at opposite helps more to get the concept.

Ahh I see now. Thanks alot samsen. The low key and high key together make a lot of sense now. Ive always loved shooting in the low key style but didnt know there was a specific name for it. :p
