This is the current family pet, Angel. He's about five years old in this picture. Animals, pets, especially cats, are some of my favorite things to photograph. They don't hide their face because they see a camera, they don't fake smile or pose in some goofy way, and they don't stop what they're doing. Animal photographs are real. The real challenge in animal photography is to get a unique or interesting shot, IMO. I don't think I really managed that here, but I like the shot anyway.

Anyway, I just love how expressive this cat in particular is. That isn't quite as evident in this shot as it is in others I've taken, which I haven't decided if I'll upload or not.

Photoshop 7 used only to crop and resize the photograph.
