Fluffy clouds
Cats
and boat people
Random moments from my Algarve week. I seldom take photos of animals. They have a habit of moving as soon as I point the camera. The three cats intrigued me, however, as they sat and just stared, and stared. I looked around for the hypnotist but he wasn’t anywhere about. The boat, in “dry dock” in Albufeira, was equally unmoving.
It seems so much more than a week since I was there. I have lots of golden moments to share, but there’s no time. I’m off to Lisa’s wedding. SO excited, I can barely type! You can guess what next week’s 6WS is going to be. Meantime, please visit Cate at Show My Face to share your week in six words. Click on the header or the link for details.
I hope to catch up with some of you tomorrow, but I may be a bit giddy!

Such lovely photographs, each of them so different, yet all bright and making me smile! Of course I love the cat trio best… it truly does look like they are posing just for you! “Ok, everyone look at the camera now..” 🙂

I’ve always loved loved loved cats until I fell inlove with my dogs… I still photograph cats a lot during my travels, and believe it or not, I think they seem to pose for me at times rolling around on their back. Such beautiful, creepy creatures! haha

I tend to think they’re a bit creepy, Antoinette. I prefer dogs, but cats can be so pretty (when it suits them!)

One of my best friends seriously believes cats are evil! She is insanely creeped out by them and I always laugh when she tries to shoo them away, in someone’s house or out in the streets.

Those three cats are fascinating, when I first saw the pic I thought it must have been photoshopped. They are looking directly at you, you weren’t dangling some tasty treat in front of your camera……where you? 😉
Enjoy the wedding and I hope the weather is good for you 🙂

The weather was grim but our hearts were light, Vicky.
No, I didn’t cajole them in any shape or form- they were quite surreal. They may well have been waiting for their tea- it was about that time of day.

Should I admit this on line, Dallas, but I’m not much of a cat person? Kittens are gorgeous but their older selves I find a bit spooky. But I couldn’t resist that shot.

They were very strange, Lorna. They were sitting in that field every evening, but the first time I saw them they were in that unblinking posture- never again.
