Battle-scarred Tuxedo


The title of this post is maybe a bit exaggerated, but I called it “Battle-scarred Tuxedo” because the cat in the photo above looks like it was involved in a brawl or two. The nose looks battered, and it appears like the cat has some kind of battle scar below one of the eyes. Also, this cat doesn’t exactly make the impression to be welcoming. It rather looks like a mad cat. It also walked confidently straight into my direction. I think this cat is the boss of a gang because there have been three cats on the same garden … Continue reading Battle-scarred Tuxedo

Another Cat Photo


I think it’s cat week here on my blog, that’s at least what you could think after I challenged myself to get more cat photos for my blog.

My cat did sleep in her small basket and I thought it would make a great photo, but she noticed it and woke up, but I like the photo anyway. I applied one of the filters in Analog Efex Pro 2, you can get it bundled with other cool preset tools if you download … Continue reading Shyna Portrait
