I meant that "centering" the cat would only work in square format. You have cropped square but have not centered the subject, which is not what I meant. Try that one some time.

OK, I'll temporarily back off my experiment. If you look at the original, the bulk of the cat may be uncomfortably centered, but the eyes are not. Also, the original crop provides the pun in the title. As with jokes, where if you have to explain the punch-line, you did something wrong, I'll concede. (But, if you are interested, notice the "bird" [chicken] on the left which is watching the cat who is watching birds...) Three variations without chicken: 1st is actually from another image in the same series, second goes back to a vertical slice of the original, the 3rd is a square-format piece of the original as syggested by JC. http://photos.stanhalpin.com/p821843095/e36e64e6f Variation 1 http://photos.stanhalpin.com/p821843095/e343578e9 Variation 2 http://photos.stanhalpin.com/p821843095/e3dbfc767 Variation 3 stan On Mar 29, 2009, at 6:27 PM, David J Brooks wrote: > On Sun, Mar 29, 2009 at 5:54 PM, Christian > <christ...@skofteland.net> wrote: >> Stan Halpin wrote: >>> >>> Warning: feline content! >>> >>> http://photos.stanhalpin.com/p821843095/e80a3dbc >>> >>> stan >>> >> >> That cat's a bit to centered for my liking, but the look, pose and >> light are >> beautiful. >> >> Christian > > What he said. > > Dave >> >> -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
