Cat Photo Competition 6 2015 : Entry Number 197
Photographers Comment
Thank you so much, Illona.
I am truly happy to see people are actually being drawn to this photograph for the same reason that made me stop to take it. It was taken in a suburb near downtown Rio, I was at a friends house and had gone out to grab a cup of coffee. On my way to the cafe I saw two white cats sitting at the stairway, I always stop to pet cats. And I started seeing how the contrast between the cats and the dark stairs of this abandoned house was playing out in conjunction with the framing rusty iron gates and concrete textures. I didn't think twice before running back to grab my camera and hope the cats were still there and they were! I was really happy with the image taken. I used a Nikon D3100 with a 35mm f/1.8 lens and processed using Adobe Camera Raw.
