Cats The Requisite Cat (Kitty) Photo thread

Everyone else's cats seem to be far more compliant that mine -- or they are more photogenic. Mine always seem to look in the wrong direction as soon as I hit the shutter release. I'm sure it is intentional on their part.

The number of photo opportunities I've lost or photos I've screwed up because my cats couldn't sit still are numerous!

I'm embarrassed to say that this is my dirty window :( It is a Soviet-made double-glass panel and the dirt is inside it — I have no way to clean it. Oh well, hopefully I will move out of this horrible apartment in next 3 months.

There's a lot of character in that window.
 
Another one!

Enjoying the sun :)

James, I like your cat running in the rain image very much - it feels cold and damp, though the cold part could be influenced by my own surroundings. But seriously, I think the blurred action worked out wonderfully.

Christina, your cat portrait brings me to the reason why I sometimes think I might prefer to come back as a cat, rather than a dog... Cats are such sensualists!;)
 
NX10 is very slim for a DSLR-type camera and has wonderful control layout. Also I like the colors it produces - they remind me of old Konica negative films :) NX100 is better in terms of controls, AF speed and image quality, but its build quality is slightly suspect. NX11 should have NX100-like IQ and AF speed in NX10-like body. Also Samsung lenses are much more affordable than m4/3 lenses.

If I didn't need video, I'd buy NX11 instead of Panasonic. However, right now it's kind of too late for me to switch (I already have 3 lenses and a flash for m4/3).
 
Love the paws...at first glance I thought they were some sorts of wild grassy plants. And your second one, seems almost like a time lapse view of this cat's world view. Very nice, James.
 
Have a few photos of Atom and Jadey. Atom, the black shadow in the bottom left hand corner is waiting to pounce on Jadey and Jadey knows it:

Atom knows he can't be seen in the shadows, as he's waiting for Jadey to come around the corner. Little did he know, Jadey took a different route to avoid him:

This was where they were just prior:

I like the illusion of a circular warp caused by the flare in this photo:
