Description ... Lighting My Way ...

These two pieces were originally meant to be mobile phone wallpapers for my parents' smartphones: they've been using the depressive default wallpapers for ages and I had to do something about it.
I worked on something with our beloved kitties and the resulting pictures are so good (at least from my point of view) that I decided to share them with you.

WARNING: just because my parents use these as wallpapers on their mobile phones, it does NOT mean that you can take them and copy/edit/redistribute them. They're still copyrighted to me and you are NOT allowed to use them in any way without my written permission. Thank you!
About The Cats: the orange tabby cat on the left is Smarty (male), he's a crossbreed between a Norwegian Forest Cat and a Siamese. He inherited his father's beauty and most of his mother's stupidity but we love him the way he is.
The calico cat on the right is Layla (female): you'd define her as the average mixed breed cat, but you should know that there's no such thing as an average cat, because each cat is unique. Layla licks coffee and Nutella and I swear that she can bark.

Original Photos were taken with a Canon PowerShot A630 (Smarty) and with a Canon PowerShot SX1 IS (Layla)

My watchers my also have noticed that I changed my copyright watermark. The new one was inspired by ~onixa 's Watermark Tutorial and I think it looks more stylish than the previous one. ^^

Oh my, the photo of Smarty is just captivating. I love his expression and the way you've managed to capture his curiosity is phenomenal. The lighting is great as well. It's so tempting to paint it. *Secretly wishes it was stock* Gorgeous photos, keep up the stunning work!

I assume Smarty's Mother was the Siamese? Ha, to each his own in that aspect I suppose since my tortoiseshell, Binx, has Siamese ancestry and she's the smartest cat I know, acts like a human.

WishmasterAlchemist In reply to MischeivousPenguin [2011-05-28 09:06:34 +0000 UTC]

Yes, you're right. Smarty's mother is a Siamese XD
He actually behaves like a dog very often and follows you everywhere, and he also has the very clever ability to make humans do what he wants them to do, like "open me a new tin of tuna, NOW, I already told you I don't want the old one that has been open for hours and lost its flavour."
I usually resist and wait for Smarty to surrender but my mom always loses at this game
Anyway sometimes he just does stupid things and we tease him saying that it must be his mother's fault.
