I love this shot! The expression is one I've seen so many times on my cat, but yours is so much more effective!

Cats are good, my dog runs every time he sees the camera because it either means mom will be gone all day or she'll be trying to get him to pose. Nice shot!

Very dramatic. Those pale green eyes are awesome and the expression fear-inducing. I definitely don't want to meet him in a dark alley. :-)
Best wishes for the holidays and the new year.

Understood, Jon, and I agree.. Stellar portrait. Maybe Max could use some Visine next time.. LOL Talk about detail.. I wanna see your setup for these doggone it! Trei, being predominantly black, and my house being never well lit, my inquiring mind NEEDS to know..

Ok are a few behind the scenes shots from the Max Shoot!
Using 2 SB-800's, one with a plastic container as a diffuser and another with a shoot through diffuser (~20 inch)
Max sits on his little cat stand and the flash with the container is at head height. I also put it directly behind him for rim lighting...
And finally, with the 2nd flash on the ground below him I placed the big diffuser between the flash and max, getting it close to Max
Notice how he's lit from underneath.
Camera and flashes are all set to manual. Flashes at around 1/10th to 1/20th power, camera at about f8 and 1/250th.

I want to meet Max someday--he's clearly a special animal--and he sits still for you! Beautiful shot
trykemom (30 months ago | reply)
Thank you for sharing the behind the scenes.

This is beautiful. well-conceived and photographed. The color of the eyes against the monochrome coat really makes for a riveting photo.

no snow up here in Canada. The weather must be confused.
Super cat shot.
I can feel the vibes... feed me... feed me... or ELSE!!!!
