Behind The Lens
Location
I took this shot in my front lawn. This is my landladys cat; but for some reason, she has it in her mind that I am her person. She follows me everywhere like my little shadow. She is gorgeous but hard to shoot, I dont think she likes cameras.Time
This was maybe as late as 3pm and was definitely past 12pm.Lighting
It was shortly after a heavy rainstorm had ended. The sky was still quite grey and quite dark, and was beginning to clear up.Equipment
My mobile phone camera.Inspiration
I absolutely love the color green and her eyes are one of the most beautiful greens Ive ever seen. She was actually looking up at the camera for me and I thought the overcast light would maybe show off her bright green eyes well... I was right.Editing
I did slightly adjust the contrast to enhance the colors of her eyes and of her fur, and make the photo look more like how my eyes naturally see her.In my camera bag

When working with animals be ready to shoot them when theyre actually being cooperative and looking at the lens on their own accord, not forcing them or forcing the shot.
