Vivi with Stray

Uploaded: October 12, 2004

Description

This cat was skittish at first, but it shortly turned to ridiculously affectionate. I think it was affection starved :-(.

Very nice capture. I can almost hear her talking to the cat. #177843

Thank you, that is exactly what she was doing. I knew when I had a chance to see how much she really loved cats that she was the one for me :-) #836788

Nice shot Andrew. You can really see the tension in the cat's body. So did Vivi adopt the cat? #836825

Beautiful image of communications... #836846

Thanks all, Vivi just recently adopted a stray who is still very much a "wild animal." These two didn't get along :-( But she feeds it, and it is always outside of her house. #836884

I was wondering if anyone could give me some suggestions on improving this photo. #837706

You might try cropping it a little tighter to draw attention to the hand and the cat. I would leave in just a little bit of Vivi's face. Other than that I wouldn't change a thing. It's a great photograph. #837743

Thanks for the suggestion, I'll try it and submit when it is done. #838533

I like it Andrew. It's a great picture - it's very telling and emotional. #841760
