Lovely work! I like how you've allowed some parts of the background, and even the cat itself to blur a little, receding back.

Yeah, I agree with growly. Picture always look good when artists know how to use focus and blur. Great work, reminds me of my cats!

Wow, I am really impressed with this piece. Like the others said, using focus to help, well, focus the viewer was a great choice. I also like how in the composition, you have everything pointing to the cat. The trail, the blades of grass, the slope of the hill in the background. Just excellent in every regard. :)

What an amazing picture. I feel like I'm not just looking at a picture of a cat, but at an individual cat who has something on its mind. :)

This is lovely, soft shades and a cute kitty. I love it. :)
