This shot came up from nowhere, i was in my Village at the time, and i was looking around the view, when suddenly a cat appeared in the field next to me.

Everything happen so quick I didn't even anticipated to change my cameras settings, and I took the shot as it was (which was ugly and underexposed).
However, there was something worthy in this shot to me from the first sight, sometimes a glance works!!

I've converted it to B/W except the saturated eyes, cleared the field around her, and make the correct exposure levels in order to restore the desired light and the glance I've wanted.

A friend of mine told me, such pictures are used for advertising purposes such as perfumes..
and he gave me the idea to name it "The perfume of a Cat"

I hope you like it

Hi Stelios,
You're right, there is something about this one. Good PP work and a good spontaneous capture. I like the coloured eyes.
Cheers, John.

One of the best (cat) picture I have ever seen.
