I took a lot of pics of her looking away before she finally looked at the camera.

In 15 years, I got ONE full face pic, and it is a good one.
He went over the rainbow bridge not too long after that shot.

I put a used towel in it and she curls up for hours. Nice job on the pic and thanks for posting it.

Have been at it over four years...for every good shot I get, I have to take 10-15 bad ones! Then go home and edit, edit, edit before uploading.

(94,058 posts)10. It seems that most cats
don't like cameras. They either look away like the 2nafish used to do... she'd put her head down and march right over to where I was standing so that she was too close!
I wonder if they see some light from a sensor that we can't see and it makes them look away.
