Description
It may be the middle of your road
A place in between two dots
But there is a life line running between those dots
It's where I am, it's what I call home


****

Street cats, strays, trying to warm up in the setting sun.
I used fill flash to get more details from the cats.
Sigma 70-200 F2.8

Ramat Gan, Israel.
Give them a home.

You've many silent fans.

Beautiful shot, Gilad. While I find your other shots wonderful, the ones with cats are just so endearing.

Beautiful lighting and golden tones! it almost sparkles. And it gives the image a more upbeat tone - like they're homeless but they're used to it and ok with it. It's almost as if they're hanging out in front of the fireplace.
Beautiful work as always

Not only is the composition, lighting, and shadows just right, but the subject matter is kitties! How could one go wrong?

I have taken in my fair share of homeless cats (we have 7 just in this house now), so I know the need of making sure they are fixed.

Those kitties need a hug. D: Especially that scruffy one there...

Beautiful shot. I couldn't tell if I was looking at homeless cats or homeless people. That cat there has some real personality in it's face.

I just saved a kitten from the cold today, and I just wish I could those two as well. It breaks my heart how people can be so cruel to animals that can offer the best kind of love others can't.

Amazing picture, its very poignant.

CrazedWeazel [2007-10-16 04:12:48 +0000 UTC]

wonderful shot! i love it, very expressive! what, if you don't mind me asking, is fill flash, and how do you use it?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

gilad In reply to CrazedWeazel [2007-10-16 05:50:08 +0000 UTC]

Using flash with a small light, not one that gives a dominate light to light up the entire scene and change the light conditions.
The name changes form one flash to the other. It's called fill flash and some, slow flash in others, just a symbol in others.. Play with your flash and you'll find it. It gives a small light and is designed to help day shots with more details

CrazedWeazel In reply to gilad [2007-10-16 08:01:00 +0000 UTC]

oh! excellent. thanks very much. By the way, those cats are very...interesting looking! I like the fur cheeks on the one to the left. Gorgeous detail that little flash does!

there are so many strays in israel! in the old city especially, i always see so many.

DarkChocolateDreamer [2007-10-16 04:02:51 +0000 UTC]

These are so sweet. I've seen much sicker stray cats though It's not fun. When I lived in Spain I and my sister always took them home and tried to help them, got them to the doctor and all. Not even nearly everyone survived.
At the moment one of our loved cats has been a stray cat.
