So have you entered this into the contest? Keep entering it until they notice it...this is a great picture! Maybe you chould try more contrast and more saturation first too...just a wild idea...so unlike me...HAHA! ; )

Hey, darling, I've always liked this shot. The simple subject matter; stark contrast of green grass blades and soft fuzzy kitten, dead-on view of the feline looking straight at the 'shooter', and the calm tail resting. It's an excellent picture, and I'm glad you took it! #2566127

Larissa M. March 23, 2006

Thanks, Kay!
I'm really excited about being a finalist, and hopefuly I'll win something in this round!
