El pájaro grande se come al pequeño

Muy apropiado en estos tiempos que corren en los que parece que la ley del más fuerte está a punto de imponerse.

Portraits of a squirrel (iii & iv)

I couldn´t quite make up my mind which one I like best

Squirrel (ii)

Squirrel (i)

This was the squirrel that was in the cat´s mind. But the photo was taken before I noticed the cat.

Black cat

There was a squirrel on the tree next to our balcony and I believe this cat had something in mind. I haven´t seen the squirrel again, but as long as it stayed high up, it should be fine.

Regarding the photo, the cat was in the shade and from quite a distance, so I had to push it up a bit with my very old 400D (already antique?). I ended up with 1/100 with 176mm, f4.5 at ISO 200 to balance noise, sharpness using a hand held tele and a min amount of light which could be post processed. The result is somewhat noisy, but look at those eyes...

Photos from my windows

You don´t have to travel far to take photos. Sometimes it´s enough if you look out of your window.
