When shooting people or pets/animals, focus on the eyes.

Be aware of where the light is coming from.

I like that you got close and filled the frame with the cat's head.

Cute cat.

id say you should have focused in between the eyes where most people are going to look first.

I like the short feild of view.

yeah bring the focal point towards the eyes more, more pleasing to look at

Ya you focused to much on the nose and you should try the eyes if you have selective focusing choose the eye area.

Here's an example of my pooch I shot this afternoon. Notice where the focus is.

Almost, with the exception mine is a dog (yours is a cat), mine has the eyes in focus (yours doesn't) and mine has the nose out of focus (yours has the nose in focus).

But aside from those differences, they are identical! :lmao:
