Whiskers

This is a portrait of a house cat from one of the Mornington Peninsula Wineries (25 July, 2009) who just sits around all day!

For the record, I’m a dog person and I’m allergic to cats but this cat was so well behaved and just sat so still I couldn’t help my self but photograph it! I love the study of b&w photography so here’s another one!

    He is such a fat cat, this is not a close up at all : ) A great way to entertain the patrons, but I still prefer the wine. Well captured Basia, great POV and detail. I’m amazed how steady your hand was after, how many bottles of wine-LOL???
