My cats
Lens: Voigtlander APO Lanthar 90mm Camera: K-30 Photo Location: Home 
Posted By: Ivan_M, 01-06-2013, 02:32 PM

Hi, I'd like to introduce my family of cats, I have three of them, two female and one male.
This is Barbara, she is 7 years old and she brought a lot of kittens to this world



This is Bardot, she is a daughter of Barbara, 6 years old, she is like a dancer, so we have picked a name after BB:





And this one is a Tomcat, he is stray and we are slowly taming him for past half a year, at the start he was fleeing when I approached him from 15 meters. Today I can pet him a little.









I hope you liked it!

Interesting series of shots telling a story. Sharp, detailed with good colour and lighting.

Love photo # 3...great focus on the eyes and use of shallow depth of field.

Beautiful cats! Tomcat may be shy but he looks well cared-for!

Ivan these are great! Very beautiful cats and I really enjoyed the narrative that went with the shots. Tomcat reminds me of my late Fat-fuzz... he was a beasty tabby but soooo sweet and he had exactly the same face as your Tom. Thanks for sharing

Wonderful looking cats. Great series. Love the interesting use of DOF in the last two. Beautiful warm tones, too!

Thank you very much all of you, I'm glad you like them.

tessfully: Thanks! He is really big and fluffy, I do not know anything about his past, but when he came to us he was in a bad shape, almost half a size. I'm really looking forward taming him completely. I tried a lot to make it before winter, but without success, at least this years winter is mild, no snow yet and temperature not in minus, better than last year when we had half a meter of snow and minus twenty Celsius...

I LOVE cats....& I LOVE your Tomcat.....looks like he's "been around". I'm sure he'll continue to respond to you, & then, he'll be "the boss"!
Cheers, Pickles.
