The designer's note
A black cat, sleek, its lights where the photo's are; the eyes the center of interest, with slit pupils, the near one slightly larger, both looking up and right; the ears large and sharp, the near one lit through; the whiskers silver on the near side and fanning into the sky on the far side; the sun up and to the right, where the cat is looking.
