My wife and I volunteer at a local cat shelter, working with those that have been deemed "feral". While none are aggressive, most of these cats prefer that we not attempt to approach too closely so these were shot from a good distance away and have been heavily cropped.

Interesting expressions in those faces: no trust, but intense attention.

Hello Tsjanik,
You have a good eye, these guys as well as some of the others are terribly afraid and mistrustful of people. Most of our 40+ "inmates" at the feral branch of our organization were essentially wild and in jeopardy of extermination prior to our acquiring them. It is amazing, and quite rewarding as well, that given some time and kindness, many of these cats have come around and actually have become quite friendly, while others….well, not so much.

Absolutely gorgeous, Sergei! If you don't mind sharing... how did you do it?
thank you.

Well.. She did hair, and base makeup, I did face painting, then we took couple shots with Elinchrom's 37" Deep Throat against Botero's background (one with gray-and light gray splats), then it was matter of putting things together, doing abrasion toning in similar way as i would do it with paper negatives (ye old old technique, from film days) , then its a texture overlays and some curve playing and some D&B to get makeup to stand out a bit more - to get visual results i like.

There really is more to South Florida than merely beaches, golf courses, and night clubs.

That looks like where I use to live before we moved in 2007. The area was called, Redland, FL. You'd find lots of plant and tree nurseries, tractors, and water shooters! I got use to being woken up at 5am to the sounds of the water shooters.

Hi Darr,
This was shot way west of Hobe Sound and yes, a heavily agricultural area as well.This was a poorly maintained citrus grove until about 6-8 months ago, then one day the trees were all gone and now… well, I have no idea what they are growing but it appears to be doing well.

A bit of cropping would improve this image with respect to composition, but I just love the wide perspective of this lens.

This is promising: from my first evening with the new H5D-50c, HC50II, ISO 1600, 20sec at f/18. Old Caretaker's House, Fort Hunt Park, after dark.
