Good luck comes to those who work at it. After shooting several hundred digital images in La Boca, a Buenos Aires waterfront neighborhood known for its colorful buildings, I was on my way back to our bus when a black cat ran in front of me and took a perfect position on a multi-colored fence in front of a multi-colored building. However, I had to do a bit more than just get the cat in the frame and take the picture. I wanted to relate the cat to its context as strongly as possible so I moved my camera position until I was able to create this double diagonal flow of energy through the picture. The line of the cat's back runs on the diagonal. And the green, blue, and orange painted structures create a diagonal series of steps through this picture as well. This little exercise in organization provided one of my favorite pictures of Buenos Aires. So much for that "Black Cat" myth.
