Hi folks,

Still on the theme of the almost made it images, Here is something that should remind me about that well known expression regarding " Working With Animals " , Always expect the unexpected and be prepared for anything, Cats are especially good at suprises......Grin

Here I was tracking my two cats ( Ziggy on the left & Pixel on the right ) as they strolled towards my location, I had the camera set-up for single frame, No action shots, ie: Low ISO-200, f/6.3 aperture, Shutter speed 1/400s, My aim was to catch the interaction between the two cats as they strolled along in the loverly spring sunshine......Smile

Then " Wham " this happened in an instant, At the time I thought sod it, Later when viewing this on the computer screen, It made me laugh, Probably Ziggy's expression as his sister does a " Supercat " take of impersonation.....Smile

Though I suspect the paw full of claws, Might have been the motivation for this.....Sad

Whatever, Thought it might bring a smile or a chuckle to those viewing, Feel free to add your own " Captions " .......Grin

For me its back to the drawing board....!
Regards
Vince

A familiar scene in my garden too, my black cats chasing round with the tabby watching. My boy is a bit heavy pawed which results in him getting spat at quite regularly! Superb action shot of your 2, especially Ziggy with his claws in action!
