Cat lovers often are the kindest and gentlest people. I met this older couple in Brooklyn and this is their cat, Star. There was an older woman who lives with Star who told me she was very concerned because Star is quite old and she had her father and her father was showing the same kinds of behaviors before he passed away.

 

There's a really strong connection between pet lovers when we talk about loss of a pet. It really is something that almost surpasses what humans are capable of enduring...the suffering we feel when a pet we love and cherishes dies. I could feel the woman I spoke to preparing for this mentally but also having that internal conflict of wanting to enjoy the time she had left without the depression already setting in.

 

I talked to this human for quite a bit and was told about how Star's father cat was so smart that he used the toilet instead of the litter box and how Star has to have special food and treats. We cat lovers pick up on little nuances particular to each personality and we treasure them as if they are individual gifts (because they are!)

 

Anyway, I couldn't tell if the man in the photo was the woman's son or partner. I had the impression when I was speaking to her below where the man and Star were standing in this shot that she was the kind of human that appreciated a conversation more than a photograph and it was just nice to have that moment. Sometimes, you have to remind yourself that there are other ways of collecting memories and sometimes words (too many words in this case as I'm rambling) can serve a purpose. I've made a note to revisit the image of her in my mind mentally but, within that image, is not merely a woman but a woman who loves cats and all those felines she's adored who've adored her back.

 

Have a nice Caturday.

This is a revenge shot. I was in New York a few years ago and tried to get this image. Everything was wrong. It was too crowded, my battery was dead, it was raining fairly hard, the family was upset with me and they wanted to get out of the rain, a goat was chewing on my pantleg, I think a clown was throwing bowling pins at me. Just a fail. I was actually very surprised when my Wife said she wanted to go to New York again. The second she said that, this image was in my mind. This time I was staying in a hotel just a few blocks away, so the family could stay in the hotel. Though, my father-in-law Tom and my Son, Wilson, did end up coming with me, but they have infinite patience. There was no rain, and we went late on purpose to cut down (a little) on the crowds. It turned out just like I wanted. Let me know what you think.

The Christmas Tree that’s put up under the Washington Square Park Arch annually by the Washington Square Association. The Washington Square Association was the first neighborhood organization in New York City with over 100 years of service to the neighborhood and was the city’s second civic organization after the Municipal Art Society. Washington Square Park is in the heart of Greenwich Village, surrounded by the campus of New York University. It was a very frigid night I took this picture this past December, thus the lack of people in the usually heavy trafficked Washington Square Park which created a nice focus on the Christmas tree itself. - [ ] #developportdev @gothamtomato @developphotonewsletter @omsystem.cameras #excellent_america #omsystem @bheventspace @bhphoto @adorama @tamracphoto @tiffencompany #usaprimeshot #tamractales @kehcamera #omd #microfourthirds #micro43 @nycurbanism @nycprimeshot @nycparks @nybucketlist @wspconservancy #washingtonsquarepark
