Lizzy snuggled into a white goose down comforter on the bed, on a cold afternoon. This was in the days before I set up a heating pad for her.

I was drawn to the folds, and the soft shadows and reflections in the white fabric, as well as the high contrast of her dark areas against the white fabric. And I liked the impossible angle of her front leg folded under.
I wish I had that kind of flexibility.
The composition makes an interesting "X" shape with the diagonal direction of the torso and the opposing diagonal of the head and leg.
