What a Kitty!

is that the last lump of coal left in the bucket from August??!
Inga Morozoff26-Jan-2009 00:48
I quite like this - and gives me an idea to try something new one day.
Thanks Phillip!

Kinda creepy and scary. It could be so many things.

But I like it alot!
Stewart Mitchell25-Jan-2009 22:44
Does resemble a lump of coal though.....definitely minimal light ;-)
J. Scott Coile25-Jan-2009 22:32
Nasty. Evidence that a cat has been there :-0
Victoria25-Jan-2009 21:45
Fantastic tone & simply stunning !!

I was thinking on the same lines as Mairead,
until I read your blurb. I thought my black
cat must have escaped...
Guest 25-Jan-2009 20:34
We can see .... that the light is low. :)
Faye White25-Jan-2009 20:27
lovely touch of light, painting the rough surface
Matylda Lempel-Chareza Photography25-Jan-2009 20:19
very pretty
Johnny JAG25-Jan-2009 20:19
Black on black, the perfect minimal combination.
Mairéad25-Jan-2009 20:17
Thought it was the dark side of the moon for a minute.
Great work.
Ann...25-Jan-2009 19:59
You've run out of logs?? Lovely minimal light.
Kevin Chester25-Jan-2009 19:56
I like the low light just to say lighting up its eyes in the dark

Moon rock?
