Socks

[Mank]

This is socks, and this is the best shot I've managed to get of her so far.

Does the right ear been chopped off make it a bad shot?

C&C more than welcome.

Some will say it does, however i think that it actually enhances the photo. I really like the tight crop and i think if you could see space above the ear then it would ruin the tight crop.
Very nice photo!

I also think the crop is correct for the shot.
Just a couple of minor points:
All cats seem to suffer from it, so I would clone out the bit of "gunk" coming out of her eye.
I know its difficult with black fur but if you could introduce a little infill light it would more definition to the "black" side areas.
