Both your Cat pictures are Very good, but this one is just perfect. Appealing slow motion gravity here somehow.. rather intense. I can't stop looking at it lol

I've looked at this a dozen times trying to decide why I like this and I think its the strong textures and lighting subtleties together with the slight offset?
Normally a centred image with a slight tilt attracts a comment such as that suggested by Lydia, but I do agree with Cat (... the 'Photo one ... lol) it works in this composition.
Sometimes bending the rules just a little and getting away with it take a lot control and skill. Bending it too much snaps it into unrecoverable image.
The slight tilt adds the needed tension perfectly which gels with subject and the bruised texture of the material here. It also goes perfectly well with the interlaced dirt and white in the photo. Tilting it more or straitening it will loose the charm we have here and make it ordinary.
This is well shot, Scott. I wish the logo were either straight or more crooked to make sure we knew the tilt was intentional. With this amount of tilt, it could be that you were just longer in one leg. *grin* If you're gonna break a rule, smash it to smithereens. (loosely quoting Lonnit). Beautiful tones. ~Lydia
