Honest criticism is hard to take, particularly from a relative, a friend, an acquaintance, or a stranger.

Cheers. I'm probably getting a bit too keen on boosting saturation and going a bit OTT with it. Thanks for headsup on colour cast and over sharpening. The sharpening I find so difficult to get right. I just do it in one stage when reduced in size rather than the 3 stage process sometimes recommended. Colourcast - I haven't calibrated my computer screen but perhaps will invest in a calibration card.- 7 Jul 2012 5:29PM

Thank you everyone. I like to think I am still young and innocent, but if you are referring to the cat, I suspect not for long. I have raised her from a 1 week old kitten for a local rescue and she is off to her new home next week. Not before she shreds most of my furniture though!- 23 Jun 2012 12:00AM

See your point Frank. My 'pure white' background is actually usually a cream shower curtain hung over the French doors which allows light to pass through, though of course it is not pure white. I actually prefer using my bright red fleece throw (£5 Sainsburys) as a background, but there is still this perception of white background as 'professional portrait'!
I did do some with the red blanket, but these ones did look better.
Fixing the DOF (I have a thread asking about increasing DOF) may help, as I can then bring out the texture of the fur.
Quite tempted to keep the fur fabric for baby shots anyway!
thanks,
