 ...saturday I go out to play

BB King, Stormy Monday, oh yea!

I couldn't resist when I saw this configuration of cats and shadows, looked like an eagle to me :-)
This is Batgirl and OJay, nearly 2-year-old brother and sister who I rescued and who are still in my care.

And oh yes, if anyone wants processing details say the word and I'll post them, it wasn't too complicated. Meanwhile here's the original

Neat shoot, I love it when cats pose that way, act so close, then two seconds later turn around and bite the other guy in the head. You caught that special moment!

I really like the photo, composition and the shadow play. Not so keen on the inside border.

This is fabulous. I love that they like each other enough to sit so close. Great shadow.

The shadow is cool and I love the title!

Pls share your processing as I am the queen of hopelessness when it comes to that side of things

The shadow is cool but I love how they are "ignoring" each other but still are so connected. It reminds me of the love/hate/tolerance relationship my cats have.

Heh! Based on your title I thought it was a meeting of "spies" and they were plotting some sort of nefarious activity.... The shadow is indeed pretty darn cool.

Nice photo, either way, but more atmospheric after processing. The shadow is cool.

AWWW I like it when animals are touching each other. Killer editing as usual. :~) I totally agree about that shadow.
