I think you’ve put the day to a much better use Sharon – this is fabulous – great lighting and wonderful processing.

I’ve just checked the BOM and it is 43.9 at the weather station 10mins from here – now I won’t feel guilty for spending the day on the computer! Cheers.

Cathie Tranent, 7 months ago

@ Sharon…. lovely work – even if it is a cat ….. :)

Thanks for that Kathy … what’s that about ignorance being bliss??

Basia McAuley, 7 months ago

Great portrait, love the lighting and his eyes.

Rosalie Dale IPA, 7 months ago

Cats get their priorities right – hot day? Take it easy. (Altho that philosophy applies to almost any cat situation…guess what I’m coming back as in my next life!!) Great shot Sharon.

Graham Jones, 7 months ago

I love the – “gosh I can barely open my eyes” look. Probably dominated by the thought “if she put that stupid camera down she’d have time to make me lasagne”! The lighting treatment in this and the fade out into the background is excellent Shaz.

Trying out the reply feature. Thanks for the comments Karl – if it makes you feel any better, the cat isn’t into people. LOL

Linda Mullner, 4 months ago

Such a Beautiful photo Sharon.. I really admire your work!!... :o)..... one day Rob will say yes to having a gorgeous cat like this!...

Sharon Hammond in reply to Linda Mullner’s comment, 4 months ago

Thank you Linda. I admire your husband’s work – I’m soooo bad at seascapes/landsapes but adore looking at others’ great work. A lot of people don’t “get” animal & people photography but it’s what I like most. You stick with it – take all of your husband’s tips & find your own style.

Linda Mullner, 4 months ago

Thanks sharon I will…I do love pet portraits and that is what I would love to do…We do have 2 fluffly girls to practice on (dogs).... :o)
