Photographer’s Note
"Dogs look up to us, cats look down on us, but pigs look on us as equals" Winston Churchill
Cats, the world’s most successful predatory family, love them or hate them you can’t help admiring their beauty and aloofness.
The last image in my little mini series of in the garden shots, probably not as spectacular as the other two, but this is Tigger, a frequent visitor to my garden, I don’t know whether she’s a stray or not, but I always put a bowl of food out for her, my cat died of old age back in January, and I always gave Tigger what he left on the plate.
Now he’s gone I haven’t the heart to stop feeding her, a plain old moggie, but I just love that stare!

Cute Kitty. The capture of the eyes is exquisit colors are great. Seems DOF was a tad short me thinks. Very appealing shot.

Love the expression on Tigger's face, but the image doesn't look sharp to me...

The Cat who Walks by Himself, till dinnertime... His nose is out of focus though - all from focussing on those gorgeous green eyes.
