Nice work! :y_the_best:

 

The pictures look professional to me. Very nice. Cute kitties. I love the Calico. I once had a Calico kitty and she was the sweetest thing.

 

Thanks. Jupiter, the calico, is actually my brother's cat. He moved to California about 1 1/2 years ago and coudn't take her with him at the time. But we'll be taking her out there in November. It was pretty amazing, he came back to visit a couple months ago and she still remembered him and was extremely excited to see him.

Great Shots! I think you have great composition in a number of them.

(The cat with the two eye colors is captivating)

 

wow, those look professional, I had some done and paid a fortune. i Love the iddle of romeo, that showcases those eyes and the side of Jupiter

Great pictures. How the heck did you get your cat to pose and stay put? Alot of patience?

 

Thanks.

LOL, not so much patience, just lots & lots of shots. I took about 40 pictures of each cat, got about 15 good shots each (some were multiples of the same pose), and then picked the best of each pose and wittled it down to about 4 or 5 keepers.

Emily & Jupiter are older (2 & 3) and calmer so they weren't too difficult. Romeo starts out trying to walk towards me every 2 seconds, then he calms down so I can snap a few pics, then he starts bathing himself (doesn't make for too many good poses), then falls asleep so I can take a few more pics. And Tennessee is just horrible. She bounces off the walls and tries to eat the backdrop the whole time.
