Kodak BW400CN Film. Serendipitous shot of my cat, Martha, on our stairs.

Hi, having a difficult time making the attachment photo appear in the post. Maybe this will work, or if not an admin will assist.

I really like this, has a great film era feel to it. Only one possibly thing id say is that because the cats face is so dark you lose possible detail in that area on my monitor atleast.

Thanks for your comment. I am flattered by the comparison to the silent film era as I'm a big fan! Yes, I guess a fill flash might help with this type of subject.

Aw, kitty

I like the fact that there's a bit of light on her nose, & her right eye is not lost in shadow... Black & white seems a good choice for this one, and I'm not a big b&w fan. Can't think of anything I'd change... was going to say maybe you could crop a tiny bit off the left, because it is a big area, but no, you've left space around her shadow. You do have a few little dust specks, but that's easily fixed.
Cute shot!
