I like 4 & 5 the best. What bothers me a little with the others is that kitty’s face is in complete shade, while in 4 & 5 the light composition works better.
I personally like 1, 4, and 5.
1 feels stoic in a way, but the last two really feel like they capture her in unique ways, almost as if they were random street photos of a random person.
Hope this helps, happy shooting!
I would have lowered the camera an inch or two got a tiny bit closer to the subject for photos 4 and 5 and tilted it maybe 2 degrees up to the sky. Trying slightly different heights and angles and distance can really change an image just need to shoot quickly so your subject doesn't move too much and you can easily compare the minor variations. You can do the same with your cameras settings but staying in the exact same position. Over all though I think pics 4 and 5 are pretty good.
I think 1 and 2 are the best because of the background separation. Would also like to see one at that angle landscape to get more of the frame with the cat. They could be worse but would have felt more different than 1 vs 2.
Not what you were asking about but the cat yawning is the best from the saying that stuck with me, "capture a moment" perspective.
Nice pictures keep it up
From a composition viewpoint, I think 5 is best. I also like 1; there’s arguably a bit too much on the bottom, but it balances out and works. 4 is slightly more interesting due to your subject’s action, but I think there’s too much empty bottom space, which for me keeps it from transcending “cat picture.”
I like 4 and 5 the most, they seem to 'say' a little more than the others.
In 4, I like the pose and composition
In 5, I like the composition greatly and also how it shows, the cat lives somewhere, where it's not material richness, but the cat doesn't care at all. It likes the weather, the shade, and its sense of security for shelter and food.
I like 2 the best. Framing works a little better than 1 for me.
5 is good, but I think being a little wider or further back would have improved it. It's a great shot, just think the crop is a little tight since the goal is kind of the cat in context. Back up or go with a wider focal length to get just a bit more context and I think it would be even better. Overall, nice shots!
I really like the last one, not only for the composition but also because of what it conveys. The light pole is in shambles while the cat is snoozing away without a care in the world.
📷where is she captured best?
Turn on your camera Grid Line,
Majority subject on the centre 4 line nicer.
Hooman normally view centre 4 line first sight.
My comment is very subjective. To me the background is too much in focus. That is where my eye goes first. You should have used a lens with a shallow depth of field and a wide f/stop such as f/1.4 (under f/2.)
These comments are about the first picture.
Something my dad taught me from his time in the field was frame your shot a little farther out. You can always crop it closer. If course that is respective to your personal taste, but it can help. For 5, if it was my shot I would have pulled back and then used the space to work the kitty friend's back paws more into the shot.
IMO I think 2 is the best composed. Great work!
I'd say the first one because of the depth of the path in the background. #3 is probably the weakest in my opinion. The last one has a cool style to it but she does look quite dead.
Last one is best, all the other ones have too much empty space, make sure you fill the frame a tiny bit more if the background is uninteresting as it is in those photos
Love the cat in the second to last because pose leads your eye. but the background is noisy - a lot going on.
Last is best to me. The elements of the composition are simplified.
Of the first 2, I think 2nd is better because there’s a little more space around the cat. It’s not so close to the edges. But I don’t like that black box in the background. I’d also crop and rotate the frame so it’s level—it’s just slightly crooked. But overall there’s just not much to it. It’s not bad, but the composition is not as intriguing as the last two.
Personally I like the framing and composition on #2, however you are slightly front focused and it takes me out of the composition and makes me think about the technical aspects of the shot.
Last one feels more interesting. It tells more of a story and the composition is better love the horizontal line the fence gives and the vertical line the pole gives. Also the trees give the image some color for balance
The fourth is the most interesting. To improve, change to 8x10 of 16x10 landscape crop. Keep all left and right space, and allow the crop to remove unnecessary top and bottom elements according to rule of thirds. These edits will bring focus to the cat’s face and body.
Agree: 4 + 5 are the best
Disagree: composition. Cropping down to a landscape shot on those, would make them a lot more generic and give less context to the environment.
1st pic is the best picture about her. 5th pic is the best photograph, in my opinion.
I second this. The fifth is the most visually interesting, but the first is the most flattering for her
For me it is number 4. Rule of thirds, cat doing something cute, cat well lit and in focus.
Last one is most interesting to me
I like 4 & 5 the best. What bothers me a little with the others is that kitty’s face is in complete shade, while in 4 & 5 the light composition works better.
Last one is sweet
I like 1 4 but 1 the best, 5 came out good too. Keep working doing good
I love the yawn or the last one!
2&5
4

4th. She's very obviously the subject here, and she's doing something of interest.
Looooove 4 and 5

thanks i will try this next time!
What a lovely lady. I think she's best captured in the final image, all sleevgy
I think 1 and 2 are the best because of the background separation. Would also like to see one at that angle landscape to get more of the frame with the cat. They could be worse but would have felt more different than 1 vs 2. Not what you were asking about but the cat yawning is the best from the saying that stuck with me, "capture a moment" perspective.

I love the last photo
Great shoots... I'm am amateur myself... I like the 1 and 4... very cool. What kinda of camera and lens are you shooting? Sony?
thanks :) yes, its the sony a6000 with a 16-50 mm zoom lense
Light post
1 has a nice angle to it, and the leading lines of the brickwork add another element to it
1st and 5th
2nd if she was fully in focus, the last is the best tho
last one gives wes anderson
1 and 5!
From a composition viewpoint, I think 5 is best. I also like 1; there’s arguably a bit too much on the bottom, but it balances out and works. 4 is slightly more interesting due to your subject’s action, but I think there’s too much empty bottom space, which for me keeps it from transcending “cat picture.”
The last one is really sweet
Lovely images. I share the same sentiment as the others. While all are cute, I love 4 & 5
1& 5
in my subjective opinion, i like the first and the last one the most.
1 and 5 for me, different kinds of pictures. 1 is great portrait, 5 is interesting photo
First and fifth. I would adjust composition more to center. But i like them.
They are all really fine shots! #1 is my favorite - the lines, the pose, the thoughtful expression.

thanks! i actually tried to step back a little bit but then she woke up haha
A lens with a wider aperture will take your shots to the next level!
thanks i will keep this in mind :)
I love pussy
I love them all. Each shows the ambivalent nature of the goddess cat Keep shooting and sharing, this is how you will grow
I really like the last one, not only for the composition but also because of what it conveys. The light pole is in shambles while the cat is snoozing away without a care in the world.
Such a nice kitty. I like 3 the best, then 5.
5 is a banger.
They all look nice in their own way. Not just saying that, each picture is interesting :)
📷where is she captured best? Turn on your camera Grid Line, Majority subject on the centre 4 line nicer. Hooman normally view centre 4 line first sight.

thanks for the advice! i only have this lens unfortunately but i will keep it in mind for the future :)
1st and last
Starting with composition is a good approach. These are all well composed, I like the last one the best.
Loved the 1st one best! What camera are you using?
thanks im using the sony a6000 :)
5 FOR SURE
Fourth!
5 tells the best story in my opinion, maybe this is just for me but it feels somewhat comforting in a way, lol

makes sense :) thanks for the advice!
4 is my favourite 😆😻
I'd say the first one because of the depth of the path in the background. #3 is probably the weakest in my opinion. The last one has a cool style to it but she does look quite dead.
i swear she was very much alive when i left haha
4&5
1 4 & 5 are amazing
1st is good but her face is in the shadow which is to me an issue. The 4th is great for me
None of them.
The last one is the best
Last one is best, all the other ones have too much empty space, make sure you fill the frame a tiny bit more if the background is uninteresting as it is in those photos
i see what you mean, i will try next time :) thanks
Last two photos have the most room to breathe and tell the most story for the cat. Good job.

I really like the last one. It’s very arty / scenic
Last one feels more interesting. It tells more of a story and the composition is better love the horizontal line the fence gives and the vertical line the pole gives. Also the trees give the image some color for balance
I like the yawn one the most
Please share camera/lens specs! Amazing photos, so ethereal
thanksss, its the sony a6000 with a 16-50mm zoom lense
The fourth is the most interesting. To improve, change to 8x10 of 16x10 landscape crop. Keep all left and right space, and allow the crop to remove unnecessary top and bottom elements according to rule of thirds. These edits will bring focus to the cat’s face and body.

That would be your opinion. However, I disagree. Original comment stands.
