Is it just me, or is the change in Shadow's right eye from his left really spooky?

It's not just you, Mary! "Spooky" is right! This is an excellent pre-Halloween shot! The lighting does accentuate the intensity on the face and give it a creepy overtone! Outstanding capture!! #180859Mary K. Robison October 22, 2004
Thanks, Dan! Always helps to have a second-the-motion! :) #862114William C. Raco October 22, 2004

The Cat Is Mad Mary K!LOL! Excellent Lighting Capture Though:-) #862850Carol Brill October 22, 2004
Great close-up detail, Mary, although it looks to me like he's giving you the evil eye here...hope you have something strong (catnip?) to ward it off! #863463Mary K. Robison October 22, 2004
Bill, Donna, Terry and Carol ~ I thank you all very much for your comments.Shadow's the fearful guy who only LOOKS angry 95% of the time... But in this photo, shot with flash, whatever blocked the lighting on the right brought out an odd cast in his pupil.
Carol, I'll give him some catnip, anyway! :) #863473

Yes, his name IS Shadow, Patricia, and this week we had a semi-crisis with him...He was given some meds with bad side effects, and we took him to the vet's, fully expecting to have them "put him to sleep".....instead, the vet said to stop the new meds, and "give him another 12 hours to get back to normal."Patricia Ronan January 06, 2008
