Cats are masters of manipulation and stealing the show. And they do it with such grace that one can't be even mad at them for it. A true tallent :)
This boy definitely stole the show that day.
I was shooting in a garden... I can't even remember what, when he approached silently and stated to watch me. I know he would walk away if I tried to come closer, so I just turned the camera, and instead of shooting whatever I was shooting I aimed at him.
Yes, this is going to be kitty spam :p
After the few initial shots, I lowered the camera and started to shoot through the grasses. It gave this nice green blur and the Tabby now looks like a wild tiger.
He did not mind. Just stayed there like if he knew he should look good (as if cats ever can look bad) and pose for a bit.
This is probably my favourite shot of them all 👇
So proud and confident!
Then he took a few more steps towards me. I guess he finally decided I am not dangerous and it is ok to sit a little closer. He still likes to keep his distance, and after I finished and got up (was kneeling on the ground all this time), he stepped away again.
Adorable face!
Who is the boss look:
And that was it. Something else started to draw his attention too. The place is full of birds and I guess he heard one close by.
Definitely a birdie :p
