Extra Info:
34 degrees and she is wearing a fur coat. She loves clover as you can see. You can see grey fuzz where she is still moulting. 2 seconds after I took this all I could see was a white tail bobbing away from me.

Thank you for your votes and especially for the comments. I had never tried an art filter before and used this one sparingly. The greyish fuzziness on the fur I think is the result of molting. It seems to pick up the slightest air movement.

Beautiful image. You have a nice green backyard, which is probably why this fella likes hanging out there! ;-)

I like it very much. Nice subject, composition perfect, good sharpness and beautiful colors. One of my favorites for sure.

Photoshop art filters normally don't normally do it for me, to put it mildly. But this seems to be all the more charming for it. A real Watership Down moment. She easily makes my top three.

The simplicity of this one is captivating. The colors are complimentary and pleasing. The detail is excellent. I can almost smell the clover. Speaking of clover, since there
is
clover, I suppose it is 34 degrees Celsius, right? In my top five.

Excellent framing, and beautifully natural background, but everything depends on the eyes in nature shots and you have the eye nailed here. I'm bothered by the fur and grass which seem slightly out of focus which may be a wind effect? In any event in my TT for sure.
