“So pleasing in its overall composition and colour. Then, the details that bring it back to 2026 (the bin, the rubber stoppers on the chairs)” — Shane
“Perfect timing. Wonderful expressions and details.” — Shane
“Perfectly British. Excellent choice of framing.” — Shane
“Remarkable timing and composition. I just noticed the third cat.” — Shane
“Apart from the overall composition and colour (which is so strong), the thing I love most about this is how the figure in the foreground stands out from the rest, with his blue shorts, and his readiness, while the others look on.” — Shane
