Self-Indulgence

Posted by on Jun 30, 2008 in Cat Obsession, Monochrome, Photography | 18 comments

Although I try to publish those photos that I think others may enjoy seeing, sometimes I practice self-indulgence. That is usually the case with my cat photos. In bad weather when I cannot go out for pictures, I choose my favorite indoor subjects: The Basil, Rosemary, and Echo. (The first two are shown above. Echo, our third and oldest cat, was probably asleep somewhere.) This photograph was taken several years ago with a much older camera whose settings were not familiar to me, hence the lack of clarity. Still, I can’t resist their pose or the expressions on their faces.

  13. Oh, this brings back memories of long ago. Nothing any more devoted than seeing two cats who truly love one another. These are beautiful cats and your capture is terrific.

  18. Great shot – I love to see animals playing with each other. I feel much like you … I’d post hundreds of photos of my dogs, but I don’t think most people would care much to see them!
