"Think about the photo before and after, never during. The secret is to take your time. You mustn't go too fast. The subject must forget about you. Then, however, you must be very quick."
~Henri Cartier-Bresson
RRC: Before and After
See that cutie above? That's my Dylan. You might say... we picked each other out. LOL. The day we met, he was sad, having just been left behind when his mother was hit by a car, and I was sad to, having just lost my cat Elvis just a few weeks earlier. I think we connected through our shared grief. Elvis was the last kitten in his mother's litter, so when she died he needed to know he wasn't alone, he needed a mother, and I needed a little boy who needed me. It's love. We are family.
But Before Dylan... Came Hendrix...
He is my boy to, but he and Alan bonded first. Alan is his person. But when he needs a mommy, he comes to me. LOL. They are my two boys! :)
Now, here are the rest of my Before And After subjects...

When I see those wonderful cat portraits, the same part of my brain that reacts happily to random dogs on the street just shouts, "Kitty!" So cute!
The potatoes are a really interesting Before and After and I'm positively envious of those pairs of fireworks shots. Well done!

Your cats are so cute! I'm not a pet person, that's why I never keep any animal at home.
