I love taking photos. Especially inside the car wash. Some people say I am crazy. They may be right.
I am a happy and silly person. Not easily offended. Go take a picture and remember the day.

OK Cat, this is way over due...... Cat's photos are without a doubt, the most creative and entertaining photos on flickr.... Always inspiring...... Don't miss out, take a stroll through her stream......
Cat has found such a perfect balance in her stream between beautiful and heartfelt and ridiculously funny. Her tender photographs of her family, and her beloved Anna always bring joyful tears to my eyes, while her gorgeous spider web and Japanese maple bokeh shots send me into a state of complete jealousy and awe. … Read more
Cat has found such a perfect balance in her stream between beautiful and heartfelt and ridiculously funny. Her tender photographs of her family, and her beloved Anna always bring joyful tears to my eyes, while her gorgeous spider web and Japanese maple bokeh shots send me into a state of complete jealousy and awe. ....BUT my favorite thing about this wonderful lady is that she knows how to laugh at herself, and she is not afraid to do so! There are times I have literally guffawed upon seeing one of her goofy pictures or comments....or shot some form of liquid out of my nose! She is truly a silly, silly lady who can lift my spirits even after the very worst of days. Cat is wonderful in that she knows what's important in life, and she shares that with us everyday through her words and through her photography; she reminds us to not take anything for granted, and to love and laugh at every moment of everyday. She is a dear friend, a true talent, and a truly wonderful inspiration. *Hugs!*

Catklein is a talented and versatile photographer. Her self-portraits range from gorgeous to goofy. She excels at capturing photos of her daughter and the viewer can just feel the love in the descriptions of said pictures. She has managed to capture the elusive flying cat in action. We are often treated to the beauty of the land where she lives through her gorgeous landscape photos. There is one area however where few can compete and that is her amazing macro shots. On top of being an amazing photographer, catklein is a wonderful person and it's truly uplifting to read about her love of life through the photos on her stream. Her stream is one of my regular stops.

I absolutely adore Cat! Her photos are always so happy and cute. She's one of those rare feel-good photographers who doesn't need to dip into the dark and morose in order to bring forth tremendous compositions. What else is there to say? She makes Explore constantly, and she does the cutest Bench Monday shots I've ever seen. If you're not already following her and obsessed with her work, then you're probably the only one. She rules!
Read lessCat is one of the nicest people on here period. Plus she's got an amazing amount of pictures in explore so she must be fantastic.
Cat rocks, simple as that! She takes awesome photos, and if we are lucky she is in them, and she looks killer ;-) She is very funny and loves to have fun on Flickr. Everytime I look at her photos, I learn a little more about her, and I am liking what I am seeing. Take care Cat, thanks for sharing you with us :-)

I think the first photos that I saw of cat's were of something silly (vacuuming in heels maybe?). Since I LOVE silly, I was instantly hooked. Looking further I found out that while her humorous side is a very large part of who she is, she's so much more. Cat can take photos of anything and make them gorgeous, especially that mythical bokey she so loves. I do love checking out her photos every single day since there is always something new and wonderful to see. I just don't know about her carwash fetish, though.
Read lessI love touring Cat's stream. Her shots are colorful and fun and interesting and always, always make me smile. She is kind and encouraging and I totally wished I lived closer to her.
Cat is gorgeous, funny and all-round freaking awesome - and if I had met her when I was younger, I suspect we'd be married by now and would have produced several mochaccino-coloured babies (one of which I would have liked to have called "Pedro").

Cat is gorgeous, funny and all-round freaking awesome - and if I had met her when I was younger, I suspect we'd be married by now and would have produced several mochaccino-coloured babies (one of which I would have liked to have called "Pedro"). If you look through her photostream, you too will realise the undeniable truth: Cat is to Digital Photography what Richard Gere is to the world of Hamster Pornography. Mr Shark absolutely loves this lady and you should too :-) ***I'm Mr Shark, and I approve this message***

There aren't too many people like Cat...ok, there aren't ANY like her! For that I feel lucky to have found her. Her photos are filled with joy and bokeh, she has the ability to turn a bad day into a beautiful photo AND a life lesson on how to be grateful for the things that really matter, AND she is as funny as they come! And we are engaged to be married. Thanks, Cat for making flickr SOOO FUN!
Read lessCat is the most fun person I know on Flickr! I love, love, love her wonderful outlook on life and photography. I envy her creativity! I truly look forward to seeing what over the top thing she has thought of each day to photo when I log onto Flickr!!!
She is a laughter engineer. I doubt that she eats nuts all day, which makes a super-risk-taker out of her. Yeah, she shocks me with her photos very often. I can tell she's successful. Her stream is full of fun and sweetness, and I love it.
Cat is the "Empress of Fun". I always look forward to her new photo postings. The world of Flickr is better with her in it!
It is obvious from her photographs that Cat has a great sense of humor and a very creative, playful and cheerful attitude, but, by regularly viewing Cat's photos, you will also discover a very wonderful and talented person and an absolutely extraordinary mom. Thanks, Cat, for sharing the best parts of life with us.
I love catkleins photostream!!!! She is so fun, funny, anventurous, creative and clever.... and it shows in every photo she takes. It's like taking a breath of fresh air with every view!!! Thanks for always brightening my day!!!
Catklein makes flickr a fun and happy place to be. She seems to have the greatest sense of humor and lust for life! I look forward to many, many more of your wonderful photos, Cat and thank you for your flickr friendship. Marni

Cat o' Cat. Anyone who can bring to Flickr the joys of Aunt Flow and Boiling Barbie is A-OK in my book. Cat brings a unique flavor to her shots.... a true sense of natural talent. She isn't afraid to express herself with filters and effects and unorthodox angles/perspectives. She opens up her family to us with absolutely fantastic stills, each telling their own story. Plus, Cat's the greatest co-Admin that a fella could ask for. Cat rules, you owe it to yourself to take a look-see.
Read lessCat has an amazing eye and inspires me to look at things differently (flow, anyone?) and to take more pictures! And she is a darling friend!
catklein is a sweet, wonderful, crazy critter!
