A few photos of my calico cat, Coco.
Trying to Photograph a Cat!
I wasn't going to include that first photo of Coco kitty in today's post, but then I realized that everyone probably has photos of their cats like this. This is what I got as I was calling her name every so nicely. Asking her to turn around. Making barking noises. Nothing was working.
She finally got to where she wanted to go, but still wouldn't look me. Still calling her name. Making meow sounds.
Everything is more interesting than me and my camera.
She finally looks at me, sort of. But it's just really too tiring.
Used Topaz Labs for my artsy photo:

Quite a lovely tail! I find photographing cats way more challenging than dogs.
Pam Greer says
Yes!

Coco is such a blessing. So much to be thankful for.

I will definitely be using it for Tocktober!
Emma says
Cats are more difficult to photograph, but our cat bro Bert will do anything for food and is a bit like a dog. He will work for food, so we use that when we need his photo. Your kitty is beautiful.
Pam Greer says
Perhaps I should try food too!
Nicole Victory says
Ooooh la la! Coco Kitty is a stunner! I know what you mean about photographing cats....as soon as the camera comes out, suddenly everything except you and the camera is fascinating!
Pam Greer says
You can take your kitty on a trip, though!

I don't have a cat but this seems to be fairly typicl behaviour of the species.
Pam Greer says
Yes, it is!

Erin the Cat says
It does remind Mrs H that we are independent in both mind and thought, and with so many things to do and see, sometimes, like with humans, there has to be priorities and routines to stick to. That said I think they have all come out rather well, including the topaz image which has such lovely pastel shades.

Coco is beautiful and she has a very impressive tail.
Pam Greer says
She does like to swish it around often!
Ellen Pilch says
Coco is so pretty. I love that floofy tail.
Pam Greer says
Thank you!
Michelle Miller says
It's like they really don't want their pictures taken! Alice always gives me trouble. It's hard enough to photograph her because she's black, and then she won't ever keep her eyes open. lol These are still great shots of Coco. She's so beautiful.
Pam Greer says
Thanks Michelle!
Comedy Plus says
Coco is a beautiful girl and so photogenic. Well it helps that her mom is a photographer too.
Hope you had a purrfect Feline Friday. My best to your mom. ♥
Pam Greer says
We did have a lovely Friday!

Pam Greer says
Oh, it is!
