The warm tones on the hands and the vignetting help to wrap the cat in those loving arms.

BTW Sharon, this was the first time I've tried vignetting, so it's not as smooth as I would have liked. While it can be overdone, I thought it was appropriate for this subject.

Thank you all. This is my youngest son, who's studying to be a nurse practitioner, with our sweet old cat Trixie, who we unfortunately had to put down just a few weeks after this photo was taken. She looks like a kitten, but she was at least 15-16 years old.

Very nice, Mary Anne! The vignetting works very well and we can really see that it is the hands that are important. ~Sharon

Nice job. You've managed to convey a sense of the arms being what is important here rather than the cat.
