[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Just playing with water (I guess all cats do), but I liked the reference to the big cat of the fountain. Usha is an everyday ressource of ideas, but here, late evening conditions were not ideal with not much light and a cat in movement. Also, standing up doesn't last very long. Some blur appears on the paw, and to a lesser extent, on the face. Lack of contrast too. I used USM in PS, and autocontrast in ACDSee (IMO better than in PS). Recropped, resized and saved.

A great capture and a lovely charming image.
The colours are nice and I like the motion blur of the paw as it is about the touch the water.
Good title too!

Excellent idea and note ! Great : movement of the paw... Good composition ! Well done !

Belle prise,
Pas évident animal assez méfiant …
Vous mettez bien en valeur cette photo.
Bravo.

Well done, Jean Michel. I like the colours of the fountain, and Usha's concentrated expression. TFS

A very great photograph Jean Michel, splendid one.

Good motion shot. I like the blurred paw as it shows Ushca's curiosity at the water feature.
Your quick action has paid off well. I like it.
