What a regal looking kitty (aren't they all??). The shadow of this special feline seems to make him seem deeper in person, if not in thought. The effect of the multitude of cat views appear as if a star - The cat as the star of the abode. I'm sure he agrees with me!
I should mention that's our cat Billy. He's about 18 years old. The quilt-maker in me can't seem to resist playing around with shapes and patterns in Photoshop, that's how the star came about.
The second shot is really neat! I see the shape of the shadow from Billy's ear repeated in the star. I'm not usually one for manipulating images much, many times all I do is crop mine, but this works well. Thanks for the visit!
Beautiful close-up in the first shot and a great framing in the second one. I love the Buddha quote, I always believed it but very few of us achieved it. Thanks for sharing your beautiful post.
“We are shaped by our thoughts; we become what we think. When the mind is pure, joy follows like a shadow that never leaves.” ~Buddha
Ah, cats always look so wise to me and this would seem to be wisdom on four paws! What a great shot/shots!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your weekend!
