Daily Photo: Jelly Bean, Pisces Rising
Looking through a window at the indoors with the outdoors reflected on the surface, and water droplets to break it up, makes it look like a collage of ideas rather than a flat image. Add in a contemplative cat and it’s mystical. The black and white image above added the title to this post, and I love Bean’s expression in the midst of objects and reflections and water, both taken the same day, seconds apart. Make sure you explore each image for all it can give you.

Packing greeting card orders with my supervisor, Mimi.
Progress! Hamlet and Ophelia have discovered the bed and the bedroom windowsill. It’s the first time in two weeks visiting out of their room they have been up off the floor. Ophelia is still pretty timid, but Hamlet is feeling pretty confident, and playful too. Patience! Great things take time, including socializing feral kittens.
And even though it’s not a cat, it’s still something we enjoy here…
Meanwhile, down in the basement…just in time for Immolc and the true beginning of spring. Time to start taking some cuttings and starting some new geraniums for summer.
Mewsette
Mewsette is watching the squirrel in the tree in front of the house, and she is a kitty who can hold very still so I can get a good clear photo when there’s plenty of light coming in from several angles. It’s actually difficult to get a good clear photo of one of their faces because they are black and they don’t tend to hold still, unless they are napping. I have plenty of napping photos. I like an awake photo now and then!

Probably the most exciting thing that happened all day. Hamlet was pleased.

Graceful Kitty, 2011
There is nothing so graceful as a feline bath, especially in morning sun. This simple curve has long been one of my favorite postures, in fact, I did a stylized sculpture of my black cat in college in this bathing posture.
I had originally added: “Someday I’ll photograph that sculpture and post it; it’s always interesting for me to see the images and motifs that have inspired me long before I began to create artwork.” Sometimes I do follow through with my plans!

Sweet Repose, Nose to Nose, 2013
Giuseppe and his mama Mimi cuddle in/on that trimmer box as I attempt to get work done in the face of their sweetness. Even the colorful little ornament seems to describe their bliss.
