Stick it Out

Posted by Alfredo J. Martiz J. (Panama City, Panama) on 2 February 2007 in Animal & Insect.

It was a hot day I remember, one of those "where should I go now?" days; suddenly I found this gang of cats, they were just there, planning the next crime and as I tried to take a photo of the one who seemed to be the Godfather Cat, I was found...

Wayne from Melbourne, Australia

The colours are fantastic and I love the scene...its almost like a post-apocalyptic scene where cats rule the ruined earth and there's Godfather cat sitting high on a soft piece of linoleum floor covering =D Nice one

Anne from White Rock, Canada

Amazing photo Alfredo - you caught him just right. He either doesn't like the taste of the lino tile - or, he is sticking his tongue out at you.

@Anne: Thanks Anne, I think he was sticking his tongue out at me, and laughing a lot!

There he is, Don Corleone. Nice shot mate I like the contrasts of the junk with the natural environment in the background, good stuff!
