Ein wunderbares Beispiel für eine interkulturelle Begegnung... wer sagt denn, dass die Plüschkatze hinterlistige und brutale Absichten hat? Glauben wir doch an das Gute in der Katze..;-)))

Nature in the raw. Whatever the feelings it evokes, this is a wonderful shot.
Posted 50 months ago. ( permalink )

b-real says:

I agree megapics. And art, after all, should evoke strong feeling, no? That you can see the expression on the mouse's face is amazing. Great shot!
Posted 50 months ago. ( permalink )

cloud_nine says:

@b-real
you´re absolutly right !
This should evoke emotions. I knew that it could end in discusions about nature. BUT after all nature is real life.

@Mendosa

Therefore I was prepared a little, indeed.

Wow, what a great capture! I never saw so much expression on the face of a mouse! Poor thing...
Posted 45 months ago. ( permalink )

Kiki J says:

awesome. I never saw an expression on the face of the mice before. But that is also what is so disturbing. The poor fella is in utter terror. I can't quite believe you didn't interfere. I know it's nature, but even so....
I would have definitely saved the mouse. :(

Tomi-in-Tokyo says:

Cats are natural hunters after all, and I only hope the little mouse didn't suffer... Sorry, I am such a cat person, and whatever they do or they don't is just irresistible. A great capture of the moment! This is my very first favorite photo on F.

Foto Buff says:

Back when there were no digital cameras and when I took my photography course the instructor said, "Remove your camera from the case so that your camera is at the ready for opportunity shots." My camera was never in the case that it came with ever again.

This is a great opportunity shot!! Did the mouse survive?

genericstrasse says:

LOL! I once got a picture of a friends dog. The dog grabbed a cigarette in her mouth, by the filter, of course, then I swear she smiled at me as I took the photo. After showing it to my friends I accidentally deleted it. Noooooo!

Since then we've been trying to teach her to smoke.

Your pic IS cool, and I couldn't really give a rat's ass (hah!) about a field mouse. But what about song birds? Does your outdoor kitty like to catch and kill them? If so, problem. Please put a little bell around the cat's neck.

Meh, I don't like it. Just makes me feel sorry for the mouse, which the cat really is only hunting for amusement.. I suppose I could enjoy it more if it was photoshopped, but it's real.
