Her Majesty the Cat

May 11, 2009 17:21

The cat was feeling lazy this weekend and would actually hold still for pictures. Usually she either dislikes the shutter noise and moves away, or gets fascinated by the camera or the red autofocus light and comes over to investigate -- too close to focus. But I have a couple of really nice shots now that give some idea of her rather complex coloring. She's mostly black in front and on her head and back, but has "poufs" of reddish-brown behind her forearms and various gray and brown shadings elsewhere. And a sprinkling of white hairs -- especially in her ears, where I think they look very elegant! You can see them especially in the "noble profile" closeup.
