This works really well on a couple of levels - firstly, as the thumbnail suggests, it's a well composed landscape, with appealing muted colours, then secondly, when it's opened you see a whole new image, where the landscape becomes almost secondary (due to the limited DOF) and the focus turns to something completely different. This is a great shot that I really like looking at
Nice one!!

I am not a big fan of desaturation and vignetting but this works extremely well here probably most of all because this is anyways such a good layered composition (with horizontal elements and diagonals in both directions) and maybe you could have taken very different approaches to pping this and still have ended up with a striking image.

Thoughtfully composed with the opposing positions of the cat and tree. The narrow focal plane works well here placing the emphasis on the cat witohut being distracted by the bolder darker OOF tree.

Its all been said. Two great images in one. A landscape and a cat. For me, wish the sky had a tad of blue in it. Cheers.

very clever use of blur leading the eyes to the cat first and foremost without losing track of the landscape BG ... very well composed and processed Kamil ...cheers ;-))

Great ...
composition and colors, Kamil. Perhaps the blur in BG is a little bit too much? Otherwise the small sharp stripe by the cat would be larger. However, convincing picture.
Best wishes,

hi again, I am lover of low aperture pictures...I understand dof can be too thin for someone, but do believe it was my wish :-) Thanks for comments, I have also similar picture on my web-let you have a look to compare...;) PS: and sorry there was no blue on the sky that day:(
