Cat Photo Competition 3 2012 : Entry Number 110

it would appear that black cats rule this cat competition! this image is certainly one of the most memorable images in the competition ... extremely dramatic with its incredible depth and framing, and those eyes! beautifully managed and great post work. well done! an instant fave. ~ illona

I am so thrilled and honored to have been chosen as the second place winner! I own a pet sitting/pet photography business...this is Opie, one of my clients. He is a former stray who now lives a life of luxury with his owner! Shot in natural window light with my Canon 50D and 24-105mm lens, post processed in photoshop to blend and darken the background.
