Cool and Warm, Just Like Milo's Personality-Shirley
by Shirley Haden

I hand held this one too, this time you can see some camera shake. The tripod is in the trunk. I did steady myself with the back of my computer chair, and held my breath. ;o)

It's a pity you couldn't get a sharper shot. I know it is difficult when cats are wake up, always in move. The light is nice.

I think he stayed still because I was blinding him with that LCD flash light. LOL I think if he could roll his eyes and groan he would have!

Love the combination of light in this one Shirley. He looks pretty complacent to get his picture taken, how'd you keep him still for 1/4 of a second?

I really like the gradual transition too ! He really looks like a cool cat !

Love those beautiful blue eyes and the fluffy soft fur. He looks very much loved. I bet you spoil him.

What a gorgeous cat he is!
You did a great job getting that graduation from warm light to Neutral light, really worke well and brings you into those bright blue eyes.

Thanks Richard, yes I have thought of a companion for Milo. I'm afraid he might love another cat more then me. LOL I feel guilty when I'm out during the afternoons without him. I miss him more then he does me.

Oh, I left out that I really like this image and the warm light on his back. It flatters his blue eyes. He is a pretty fellow. I wonder if he would like a girl friend to occupy his time when you are out of the house. I know Freddy and Molly really get a long very well together and they entertain us a lot with their antics.

He looks like he really likes the stage lights. Be careful he may want to join the actors union. Then you have to pay him hourly wages with a minimum. That hurts.
Remember what the doctor said about holding your breath...
I bet you would be happier with the next attempt whilst not holding your breath :)
that is code for why not walk out to the car, I know it is cold now out there, and get that tripod and hope that Milo has not yet found a union steward.
