One great granddaughter flat turns her back on me when she sees me coming with my camera. My oldest granddaughter once asked me to please leave my camera in the hotel room when we were visiting her college town. But the cats are usually at least mildly willing to perform for my camera.

She\u2019s an artist and photographer with a lot of black cats.<\/p>\n<p>In the meantime, would love to see your interesting cat photos and hear about some of your experiences photographing these wonderful beings.<\/p>\n<p>In contrast to Lily\u2019s silly photo, I decided to post one of my favorites of Lily and Sophie.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_652\" style=\"width: 235px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-652\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-652\" src=\"http:\/\/www.matilijapress.com\/catscapades\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/LilySophie-022-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"Lily and Sophie\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.matilijapress.com\/catscapades\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/LilySophie-022-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.matilijapress.com\/catscapades\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/LilySophie-022-375x500.jpg 375w, https:\/\/www.matilijapress.com\/catscapades\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/LilySophie-022.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-652\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Lily and Sophie<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Sure look like they\u2019ve had experience as run-way models, doesn\u2019t it?
