Feral tabby

Photographer: Petar Mitchev

This feral cat picture was made in very low light conditions - it was cloudy, and the cat was in a bushes, which are a very shady place. So, again the good lens and the low noise camera ware from critical need.
The attention of this tabby was concentrated on some bird or something, and that made me the opportunity to get close enough to it :) And the result is very good, at least for me and my skills :D

This is the second picture of the serie of that feral tabby (the other one is here). I really like the expression of this cat. She was posing like a real model. The good focus is all because my old Canon EF 135mm f/2.0L USM - a very good lens for feral cat photography.

This is one of my favorite models. I loved this feral kitten - it was not scared from me and it was very very cute. You'll see many pictures of it in this site in the future. So, at this specific moment, feral kitten was lying on the ground next to a block, and resting. It was almost noon.

Hiding cat

Photographer: Petar Mitchev

This cat hiding in bushes is hiding not from other, but from me. The feral cats are scared from unknown humans. This is cause of their self preserving instinct. So, if you get too much close to a feral cat, it will surely run away.
