Backgrounds are too messy for me, i'd get a neutral background with a colour that's a pleasant contrast to the colour of the pet. The second photo could do with the shadows lightening slightly in photo software IMO.
Mine - wondering how soon I was going to put the camera away and open the fridge, so he could look at the cat's chicken supper!
This is actually quite an interesting photo, as it uses a high colour contrast around the head and lower contrast round the body, to draw attention to the head. This isolation of the head of is mostly achieved with a narrow depth of field, where the head is in focus and the rest not, like Pascals photo.
Thanks, Sean I've just about forgiven him for demolishing the bottom half of the tree and decorations when I got up on Christmas morning! Then I went into the kitchen to make myself a cup of coffee, to find that the cat had taken a short cut through a large bowl of trifle!!!! I had to cover the deep footprints with more cream, but I don't think anyone noticed That cat of Pascal's is a stunner. Back in the 80s, I took part in the breeding program for colourpointed cats and bred some beautiful ones, but that deep blue eye colour was very difficult to breed true. I think his cat is a colourpointed ragdoll, and it certainly gets full marks for those lovely blue eyes.
The quality isnt so good.... http://a5.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-prn1/26373_1312453064842_1932195_n.jpg
