Location
I visit Kyrenia (Girne) in North Cyprus quite often....that is the Turkish part of Cyprus. This photo was taken at the Hotel Pia Bella...my favourite hotel, where there are many cats who roam about the garden and like to nip up on the guest seats if allowed! The cats have a feeding time morning and evening, so are well cared for.....better than some of the wild ones seen outside the hotel.Time
Don't remember exactly what time of day this was taken, but probably late afternoon when taking a refreshing drink before evening dinner.Lighting
Natural lighting for this pic.Equipment
I took this photo with a Canon Powershot G9.....a nice little camera that I used to love..Inspiration
I love cats, so I'm always snapping away when I see one.Editing
It was a while ago when this was taken, so I do not recall if any post-processing was done...but I know that it has not been cropped, and was taken as seen.In my camera bag
This canon camera was a pre SLR....more of a point and shoot.....better for holidays, so that I don't have to carry any extra lenses. At the moment I have been trying out cameras with interchangeable lenses....a Nikon and a Fuji mirrorless.....but as I am getting older now and don't travel as much, I prefer to stick to an auto zoom with a very good zoom. I like my Sony DSC-HX400V which I am using at present.Feedback
Advice for others....?? Go to North Cyprus...It's a beautiful place...plenty of places to see and photograph.
