A couple things about the second one that I would change. Rotate the lamp so that you can't see the "warning" sticker in the bottom and use a plain white border or something. The green border takes away from the intensity of the green in the picture.
Whenever I try to get up close to my cat Mia (who resembles your Tommy quite a bit), and I find I "clipped off" her ear in the end, I get quite peeved ...
Your conversion and toning is nice here, as is the crispness!
-midget patrol - on what you said about the warning sticker, I did TRY to move the lamp but my brother had had it on allll day long so it was VERY hot! lol
- LaFoto - yeah it does the same to me but this one didn't as much for some reason. I guess I was just focused on getting his expression so I didn't worry about anything else
