Pets Black

Black · **2 Likes**

A neighbors cat sits looking in through our door. Had to underexpose by 2 stops to keep him black.

Excellent. The rim light is really effective.
Do you know what happened to curl his whiskers on the viewer's right side? Or is that part of collar? (Sorry, small screen, old eyes.)
Thanks for sharing.

Nice effect... but what is all the white stuff in the lower right?

Very nice image. Well done.

So mysterious....

Lovely photo.

He's a bit like a black hole, absorbing all the light.

Wow - nicely done . . . . lots of detail yet no hint of any other color but black.

It is part of an old collar he was wearing, quit a timid shy cat.

An exceptional shot! Love the eyes. Very very nice looking cat.

If I were the cat's owner I would want a copy of this one to hang on my wall. Nice job.
