Tongue Action

I'm just so darn proud of this photo. This blog doesn't need any more pet pictures, but do you realize how much time and patience this one took?

1) They're often nice to each other but only for a few minutes
2) They had to be cleaning and not just sleeping.
3) It's in focus even though Apollo's black fur is a photographer's nightmare.
4) Their tongues are showing.


Now I have a photo proving how affectionate they are to each other. Every time I'll look at it I'll think how challenging the shot was, and then I'll think about how it's not a very good representation of their usual activities, namely terrorizing each other. Isn't that what photos are for?

Very nice picture! I know my kitties would never pose for something like that!

Apollo looks like a kitten. The other's outline looks like Sher Khan. A purring cat's other temperament is just a moment away. Great shot.
