Description
Just snapping shots with my new camera and my cat Moose wanted to see what I was doing. What resulted was one of the cutest pictures I think I have ever taken. As usual I would love your feedback.Related content

Wow! Nice capture, his expression really does fit the moment, and the position of his paws too. He definitely looks like he's going to make a big move with his queen chesspiece
I love the reflection too, especially of the whiskers - they form a nice symmetry.

Great shot! If you could teach cats to pose like that, you could have a feline modeling agency the likes of which the world has never seen. Something to think about, I suppose...

ur cat looks like he's daring u to move so he can either A:checkmate you or B:beat ur ass for wining the game. haha!! he has such a serious look in his eyes. and the paw by the chess piece sets it off perfectly!

I love this. Just because the cat looks like some sinister mastermind

why is it that cats make either funny pictures or angry looking pictures?

Beware, he really looks like he is winning!
A really nice shot, good colours and the mirror effect of that table(?) is enhancing the scenery quite handsomely.

Glad you like it! The reflection is actually coming from a 3'X2.5' acrylic sheet! You can pick them up for practically nothing at most hardware stores and some hobby shops. I however "borrowed" this one from work! hehe.

Thank you! I happened to be experimenting with my lighting set on some stills so when Moose wondered in I was such a joyful to have a willing subject!

Now that is an incredible picture. He actually looks like he's playing the game! What a poker face, too! I wonder... Chess is fairly simple (though I know there are people who disagree with me). I bet that somewhere in the world, there is a cat who knows how to play it for real! If not, perhaps, on a grandmaster level. I wouldn't put it past a really smart cat to beat me at it, though...

Chess is by far my favorite game of all time and if their is on cat on earth capable of learning to play chess it would be this one! Perhaps I could try to teach him.... Check for updates!

That I will do. If you do manage to teach your cat to play chess, I want to go down in history as the guy who put the idea in your head...
