I'm totally in love with Sophie, Cindy. Your photos are FAR from standard pet pix...they are masterpieces. I really like this unplanned one. What a gorgeous portrait (that she will always cherish?)

Leslie, and Jean - thanks so much for stopping by to comment! #5719775

Alex T. Mizuno March 30, 2008

The kitty and the flowers - they are complement to each other. How can you think of shooting without either one of them? After all, you have to comply with your contract with the kitty. It's Sophie's world. A perfect portrait Cindy!! #5719850

Cindy Bendush level-classic March 30, 2008

LOL Alex! You have no idea! Sophie is a princess (in fact her name is "Princess Sophia") a fact she continues to remind us about every day! I've not done a kitty with flowers for fear of everything ending up on the floor, wet and ruined ...with a scared kitty to boot! And I never would have attempted to do this by myself either. But when Sophie insisted on being on the table, I thought, "why not?" and grabbed the kitty teaser...

Thanks so much for your awesome support Alex! #5719937

Sam Britt March 30, 2008

Beautiful, Cindy. I can't let my kitties anywhere near my flowers, even silk ones. They think they're meant to chew on! #5720036

Laura L. Gonzales level-classic March 31, 2008

Cindy Bendush level-classic March 31, 2008

Thank you Sam and Laura for your kind comments!

Sam - Sophie is a chewer and nothing is sacred, including plastic, toilet paper, and kitchen knives :-P #5726637

A gorgeous image; in my eyes, a winner!

Cindy Bendush level-classic April 20, 2008

Thank you Elizabeth and Lisa! Sophia's in charge I guess - she usually jumps off the table when I want to photograph her...She has a mind of her own and wants us to know it! #5813437
