Cat and bird

I figured it would be nice to have a way of showing different subsets of my pictures that I post to flickr, and to have some more space for blablabla around them, in case I would want to.

Without further ado, I start with a small photo serie of a very friendly cat, and his interaction with a bird feeding outside the kitchen window of a friend's countryside house.

As you might have noticed, the story-telling using these pictures is a construction, since the pictures were actually taken during two days. But this is how it happened, just that I couldn't capture it all at once ...! There was recently a good Swedish radio (P1) documentary about how much in nature programs that are staged that comes to mind (a pity I can't find the link now, I might be back with an update).

*Small update* The biggest challenge while shooting this was finding a reasonable balance between the brightness outside and the shaded room. As you can see from the picture where he tries to attack through the window, it is impossible to have a good exposure for both the cat and the bird at the same time. (Without more fancy time consuming post-production, of course...) But at least it was me who made the trade-off, not the camera, since they are all taken with manual settings.
