Cat Attack

I think this is a really good action shot. They used the focus really well in this photo, having the cat's face unfocused, and the frog and paw in focus. They also used the rule of thirds very well. The action of the paw is emphasized and balanced with the empty green space to the right. The emotion on the frog, seems like a realization of what is happening, as it seemed to be very unaware of the cat. The cat appears to be not emotionally involved with what is happening, like it's a game (which it could very well be to it). It seems focused on the attack but not entirely there. It isn't anything new to the cat, it seems like it knows what it's doing and this is something it's done before many times. 

I like the emphasis on the frog's colour and how the browns and stripes from it's skin coincides with the cat's stripes and fur colour. The pink of the cat's toes, and the whites of it's claws stand out from the blurred background. You also notice the eyes of the cat. 

The frog's legs are bent in a way that makes me feel that it is always ready to jump and escape from it's predators. The line on the frog (leading from it's eye to its leg) is eye catching and leads you to see the points of action. One, being the paw, and two being the ready-to-jump legs. You can also see the lines on the cat's face. Emphasizing the cat's eyes leading into it's nose then the paw. The cat's claws have a really good light on them, you can see the clearness to them, yet you can also see the curvature of them. It's paw is all spread out ready to grab the frog. 

I feel like the cat's face is showing a disinterest, although the action seems to show the opposite. 

All in all, good action photo with good timing.
