I'm never sure what he's dreaming about, but I know he's happy - and that makes me happy.

Macro Mondays - Redux 2018
Ginger is one of the cats on the YWAM base where my wife an I are volunteering this winter. I took this picture yesterday and then used some HDR processing to bring out the blue color and details in Ginger's eye. I chose to redo the March 26th theme - The Blues. HSS and HMM
