Very cute! You couldn't get rid of the white hair over his right eye, could you?

Perhaps you could have reached in with a comb before taking the photo...

Nice shot, one that I would only have taken if I had a gazillion-mm super-ultra-telephoto lens and six armed bodyguards.

And there I was, expecting to see a car crash!

Never mind, the cat looks quite coquettish with that stray eyelash; I like my felines like that...

Thank you Gentlemen,
No need for bodyguards, she is in the Palm Beach Zoo. I'm pretty pleased with the sharpness considering it was shot through a mesh fence.
Thanks for looking,
Dave

Great very nice.
I would do it in black and white, not just because I am a black and white guy, I believe this shot could be great in monochrome.
