Wow.

Lovely pose, excellent capture. The only issue I have with it is the ear and paw cropping - I still think it works well though, and those things are so cute.

Another one where someone could have used it for the black and white compo though ;)

Great photo opportunity there, wonder what he/she is thinking about.

Only real comment is like Darksaber mentioned, the composition of the subject, and perhaps a stronger contrast to make the dark stripes appear darker - colours seem a little flat to me (was this shot behind glass?).

Otherwise though a very nice shot:thumbs:

I'd agree with the slightly soft comments, I know it's not too easy to take supersharp'uns through glass.
However, its a lovely pose and great capture. Would have looked nice in Black & White (http://www.talkphotography.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=10232) ;)

very nice, crop is a little harsh with the paw and ear, but im just as guilty of that myself so it doesnt ruin the pic for me :)

i did a little play with it as you have the image editing ok tick,

Levels tweak and some unsharp mask at 100% 0.2 radius threshold 0

Sean, crop doesnt have to happen in photoshop, can happen in the camera ! :)

Its always tricky shooting through a car window, even when not moving as the glass can have coatings and all sorts on it that will affect the shot.

Try following this article for sharpening etc, it may help :)
