Hello - first photo put up for critique

[Ryan]

Hello! What do you think of this photo of a stray cat I found in an alley?

Camera: T3i

Lens: MIR-1 37mm f/2.8

He's got his ears down. Probably best to leave him alone. What is causing the greenish cast?

[Ryan]

Probably my color-blind color correction...

I used Lightroom 4.

Hi Ryan!

Welcome to you and your kitty!

Have you considered how your kitty might go with B&W?

I am seeing the color cast myself, and I am guessing this kitty is a black & white colored kitty anyway. So why not let him/her shine in his/her own tones?

I think its a good shot of him/her! Maybe a tad bit more depth of field would have been okay, but that call is yours!

Thanks so much, Terry!

I will swap it to B&W when I get the chance - I also recently got Lightroom 4 so I haven't really delved into the color correction possibilities yet!

Thanks for your kind words and advice.
