\"\"You all know that I like photographing cats. I used to carry a camera while taking my daily walks, now I just use my phone camera to capture the cats I come across. I have a collection of cats in trees, on fences, peeking out from behind flowering plants, peering \"\"through windows, hunting, and just watching me pass by.<\/p>\n

I also snap pictures of my cats and visiting neighboring cats. Like it was when we used \"\"film, there are a lot of wasted pictures. Now, however, you can just delete those that aren\u2019t up to snuff. You don\u2019t have to pay to have them developed. For me, \"\"that\u2019s a major technological shift.<\/p>\n

You\u2019ve seen at least dozens of photos of our sweet Lily here and now of Olivia. I\u2019m always trying to get a more creative shot and often I fail. As I go through my array of photos I have to say that most of those I like best are pictures I didn\u2019t stage. These are either bloopers or the cat happened to strike a pose I couldn\u2019t \"\"resist.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ll bet you have photos in these categories featuring \"\"some of your cats. I\u2019d love to see them.<\/p>\n

Today I\u2019m showing a few of the photos I\u2019ve taken over the years that were pretty much ooops shots, but that ended up being rather striking or interesting.<\/p>\n
