This is Sully, looks like he is cracking up laughing but he was actually just on the end of a yawn! I like the way his paw his lifted up, almost as if part of the laughing. This was taken in July 2007, using Nikon D70. This is not photoshop’d, apart from the logo being inserted. Basically is as it is!! As Sully is!!

    I wish! It was when I first got my DSLR and was so busy working it out (like WB? What was that salesman talking about with WB?! What’s that?! Ohhhh…. filters….. I was used to SLR’s) that I had the camera in my hand ALL the time and Sully yawned! Thanks for your kind comments! Vicki :)))

    So sweet!

    MILAN :)

  • Vicki Ferrari replied

    Thanks Milan! He really is, except for when he’s not!! Sometimes I call him Termite.... when he chews the skirting boards and the back legs of the rocking chair…. not happy jan!!! :))

  • Wendy  Slee

    Wendy Slee

    LOL….this is fabulous Vicki….
    Your Sully is gorgeous and that’s one wicked laugh…..

  • Vicki Ferrari replied

    Thanks Wendy, he is a character! And, yes, he can be quite wicked, his other name is Termite, because he chews wood….rocking chairs, doorstops, shoes racks, skirting birds, ornament ears & noses! And then he moves onto photo paper, photo albums and I think you get the picture!! (Yes, I do feed him, and well!! :)))

  • Wendy  Slee

    Wendy Slee

    in other words, he is part goat/part paper shredder/part termite/part feline lol….

  • Vicki Ferrari replied

    LOL something like that! The rocking chair lacquer didn’t agree with him, and ultimately didn’t agree with me….. that came back up – always wear slippers or shoes around the house first thing in the morning!!

  • Vicki Ferrari replied

    (his other nick name is Chukky Uppa, amongst many others that I won;t mention here! LOL)

    Hey Vicki, Cats are so interesting to photograph. So much personality and so hard to keep still. I had a close connection with mine and wished i had taken many more photo’s of them. Chuckles appears to be expressing his thoughts of being photographed.

    Regards Grant.

  • Vicki Ferrari replied

    Hey Grant! I sometimes think he wishes I would just go away (with the camera)!! He was young here, and I was still learning about digital SLR’s…. His name is Sully, short for Sullivan, after Monsters Inc, I think it is! He is adorable but I am biased! :)) It is sad when they pass on, my Yiddie was my first baby and I never thought I would ever get another cat, and I still miss him! And then someone gave me Sully…. he has been a godsend…. except for when he eats the furniture and the ears of ornaments!! LOL
    Sorry, I wrote a novel! :)) (am good at that!)

  • Barbara  Brown

    Barbara Brown

    Oh my!! That look is classic!! Looks like he just heard a really good joke!!

  • Sheila Simpson

    Sheila Simpson

    With his paw raised, he looks as though he’s laughingly saying, “Oh come on, no, I can’t believe it.” I had to chuckle myself when I saw this! Great shot!

  • Vicki Ferrari replied

    That is what it looks like, aye? Or he might be saying “what a crack up”!! Thanks Pathfinder!! :)) This still makes me smile!

  • Ingz

    Ingz

    wonderful capture of Sully! picture perfect…..not easy to catch Vicki, you have done a lovely job here xxxx

  • Vicki Ferrari replied

    Thanks Ingrid! I sat there with the camera beside me, watching tv and just waiting for a photo opportunity and da-dah! It happened! LOL! I was playing with shutter speed, and flash on manual… learning the digital camera, only knew normal SLR’s before that! At least it doesn’t cost anything to take digital photos!! (thank god!)

  • Ingz

    Ingz

    you’re right Vicki, at least we can practise on digital cameras, if it wasn’t for digital i could not afford to take pictures as i take so many to just get the ‘one’ and so many times i don’t even get that!! i’m also using the manual now and experimenting, I have so much to learn but so little time and patiences though, but the love i have found in taking pictures makes it all worth while. xxx

  • Vicki Ferrari replied

    Reading the book is SO important! And then playing with the camera! That is what I was doing when I shot this photo of Sully! The only problem is you end up with one million and 2 photos and dilemma as to which one to do something with! If you know what I mean?! :)))
