Casa Kitty in Mexico. Actually, this is where a woman named Kitty lives.

There's no protocol for pictures of cats! ?

A good example of intrusive jpeg compression.

Lewis, this is just fantastic!

Your great grandmother had a good eye & you’ve done a great job of restoring/processing the glass plate negative. This must have been quite an emotional experience, as well.

Thank you for sharing this amazing photo.

Thanks much -- I started the project w/o knowing she was the photographer. Soon I discovered family tradition had her shooting and processed the plates herself, and in some you can see her holding a bulb remote. There were a fair amount of critters in her plates, mostly in the background of other subjects, but some front and center like this one. Cheers!

Isis likes Simba, but wtf...
She has absolutely no interest in my carefully framed pictures, nor my manual settings.

Thanks/Erik

One of the favourite places.
When she jumped down I thought it was because I had come a little too close for a portrait. But it was rather for a "thank you that you've noticed me" and some cuddles that she stroked my legs.

The screen shadow across the cat face, especially the eyes, is fantastic. <3

E-PL1 w/Domiplan f:2.8/50 mm
@f:2.8 1/3 sec ISO400

Soft lenses are OK with lady Isis de Tortoise.

Soft kitty,
warm kitty,
little ball of fur!
Happy kitty,
sleepy kitty,
purr purr purr!

Or else, I would have to polish the otherwise all too visible, lighter coloured cat hair, and assorted other cat fur debris types, off of her with a shammy.

Hostile kitty,
mean kitty,
vicious ball of fur!
Fierce kitty,
growling kitty,
grr grr grr!

So, a soft lens definitely has its place in her collection! You might even call it a life saver.

Thanks/Erik
