Chat Noir

by Hosojima
(SoCal)

I've always loved this famous French art print, and on two separate occasions after I put the print up, one of my black cats (twin brothers) has sat near the pic in the same position as the artistically-rendered cat! But this time, I managed to catch it; true "Kodak moment." I did darken the edges of the image around Jackie to intensify it (to use on myspace), but other than that, this photo is exactly as I took it. I only wish I coulda gotten his tail in there, curled in the same way!

great photo

Hello Hosojima,
The Chat Noir is a handsome cat. His coat looks so shiny. I like the way he looks sitting up there to strike the pose at the camaera. He is very attractive with his mystiscal eyes. I'm sure he is quite the charmer. Thanks for sharing his photo.

Thanks!
by: Hosojima

I appreciate your sentiment, and rating! I actually have hundreds of pics I could submit to photo contests, I'd be agonized to choose a single one! I'm having a hard time typing right now because Jackie just happens to be trying to lay across my arms. Hey, at least he's not laying right on my mouse pad, that's the usual inconvenient spot. Anyway, I was looking at black cat pics on your site, and it just seemed so fitting to share this particular photo, considering that a lot of us cat lovers probably bought the same art print!
Thanks again!

Hosojima,

What a beautiful picture. Your cat is gorgeous. He sure knows how to pose for a picture. Have you submitted it to photo contests?

It pays to have a camera handy if you have pets. I've missed several Kodak moments myself because I can't find my camera.

Thank you for sharing.
