Pretty Bean

Jelly Bean looks out the door into the rainy day. I love the little brushes in his ears; all of Mimi’s Children have white hairs in their ears with varying quantity, though Mimi does not, but Bean has the most, plus they are short and tend to stand forward. He’s had them since he was tiny, and that was how I told him from the others until the paint on the ears since without that they were all just uncoordinated balls of black fur.

Sometimes I can manage to get an interesting photo that is somewhat abstract; what does the rest of the image matter but Jelly Bean’s little face? And it’s a different view of his face, intimate and detached at the same time. I love to observe them like this.

    I love reading about your cats and seeing your pictures. It’s nice to know I am not the only one to take so many pictures of my cats! Karen

    • Karen, thank you so much for your feedback! Sometimes I think I’m just a little loony with this practice of photos and stories and I should just get a life, but it’s so fun and it’s good to hear that you enjoy it–and we know we’re not alone!

    • Denise, I guess he would be third in line after Giuseppe and Mr. Sunshine!
