Photo Fridays with Coltrane
Posted by: dogtrax in Homepage, Photo Fridays, tags: photofridaysThis is part of a Photo Fridays project over at Flickr that is overseen by Bonnie. You are invited to come on in and add your photos to the collection.
This is Coltrane, my cat (named after the legendary jazz saxophonist John Coltrane). I was taking a photo of something else entirely when he poked his nose right into the lens of the camera. I kind of like it.

It sort of looks like he has a milk beard, doesn’t it? But that is just the flash of the camera dancing off his face.
Peace (in purrs),
Kevin

This shot has made your cat’s head look inflated and hovering forward, away from its tinier body – like a caricature. Great shot!

Or. a balloon in the Macy’s Parade.
The proportions are all askew, which makes it interesting.
Thanks for the comment.

Oops, the previous comment was by me not my student Jenny. Thought she had logged out earlier today and I didn’t check.

Isn’t serendipity fun? I love it when a “mistake” turns out to work anyway!
