Weekend Cat Blogging: Light and shadow
This week, we have an exercise in light and shadow with this Instagram photo of Luna on the window sill. It was taking around 1pm on a Sunday, not the best time of day for photos. But with cats, you can to take the shot when it happens using the tools at hand. The lighting places much of Luna in shadow, which makes her dark fur even darker. But there is also a patch of light on her fur.
Luna is happy to be home after I was out of town for a few days on my desert trip, which was full of quiet stark landscape, intense heat, and “self discovery.” I already shared one photo for the most recent Wordless Wednesday. I am sure I will be sharing more soon.
By coincidence Jules is also showing off light and shadow contrast on his black fur this weekend as he hosts Weekend Cat Blogging at Judi’s Mind Over Matter.
The Carnival of the Cats will be hosted this Sunday by Kashim, Othello and Salome.
And the Friday Ark is at the modulator.

Hi Luna, getting a bit of a suntan?

I love the way the real cat and the metal one echo each other across the frame. Great image.
