I posted a color version of this shot, but, I re-edited, cropped and changed it from a verticle to a horizontal. Comments always appreciated and respected.

I think it's a great shot, Al, I like the crop fine. Sorry I missed your earlier color version, could you post it again here? Very nice though!

Thanks for the comments. Here's what the original looked like.

OK thanks! Now, can you colorize your new crop? I do like it better with the tighter crop, but wonder how it would work in color. Your first color version does result in the cat blending in to the rock colors, but I think your new crop in color would be beautiful. Not that it's not in B & W :D

I personally like the vertical one better ...... in my opinion I feel more in his environment in that image then in the cropped one. I do however like seeing his beauty in the close up ..... Nice capture none the less.

I love it, Al. Great composition, contrast and vignette. Frame it and hang it. And thanks for sharing.


All I want is just a little more than I'll ever have.

I like them both although the re-edit does make it more dramatic. Nice job.

That's nice, and I definitely prefer the new crop and B&W, nice and moody.

Another vote for the B&W version. Well done.
