Hang around

is what you do if you are a cat, and it's rained cats and dogs for the past 2 weeks.
Hang around, reading
playing with fill and shallow DOF -right in the cat's fur- is what you do if you are a human and it's rained for the past 2 weeks. I don't know if there will ever be a sunny day this summer.

Canon EOS 20D
1/50s f/5.6 at 66.0mm iso400 with Flash full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

That is wonderful photography.
A magnificent animal, too.

The dof and lighting is nice on your subject.
It gives him/her the look of a hunter awaiting its prey.

Cats know how to wait. Patience I can only dream of.

Pretty little tiger. The don't like to get wet so I suppose this is harder on him than you. All those birds and chipmunks out there getting away. Beautiful pet portrait.

Leonine little fellow, yes? Very nice DOF. I vote.

Nice to see you take an animal shot, and a cool one it is too. I predict long hot summer days towards the end of August!

So, I take it you didn't give QP a try? I think we made the right call on that one, eh? Pretty kitty - looks like our old Buffy we used to have.
Guest 26-Jun-2006 01:09
Hope the sun comes out! Nice shot of the cat - the background works great.
