    Luna and Lily in Black & White (more Luna added, #24 & 25)

    I just posted some new pictures of my girls on Facebook, and I thought I'd share them here as well. Guess it's been a while... This time, the pics were taken in black & white, which I think can sometimes be interesting. Not sure if it really works with tabby kitties...

    Here's Luna:





    She has weird whiskers:








    And Lily, playing with a plastic bag today:

    Beautiful pictures of your girls! But then, they always are. I hope everything is fine in your household and give your kitties loves and pets from me.

    There they are! Hello, sweet Luna and Lily! I love Luna's curvy whiskers, because sometimes that is the only way I can tell Luna and Lily apart! *kisses* You are beautiful in black and white AND in color!

    Aaahh, I have been defrosted! Thank you, Bonny and Asiel!

    Lovely pictures of the girls. I do prefer color for them, as they have such warm browns and golds in their coats, but with the greyscale images, one notices different details, like those silly whiskers!

    Hi there, Luna and Lily. You are two gorgeous girls! I just love the 4th one of Luna and both of Lily.

    Love the black and whites!!! So cool. May favorite is the third one down with just part of the side of her face and her whiskers. I think their whiskers really define them. My second favorite, and a close second, the the 4th pic of her looking up a bit. She looks so deep in thought. Don't you wonder what is going through that sweet little brain of hers?

    Do you use actual film? I am going to see if I can conver a couple of my pics of my cats into black/white.

    Thanks a lot!

    Karen, I know what you mean re. the colors, but I also think that the lack of it helps us to become aware of other things we usually miss...

    @happylabs: No, I took them with a digi cam, I had the camera settings on b/w. But you can also do that with a photo editing software afterwards.
    And yes, I often wonder what's going on in their little brains!

    The black and white pics really make the whiskers stand out! Such stunning beauties.

    You always capture your girls so beautifully, Kirsten! Thank you!

    Kirsten, no matter how you photograph Lily and Luna they always come out absolutely beautiful! Your black and white pictures bring out another side of their beauty and I swear I could hear them purr. Is there anything you can't do with a camera? I'm always in awe of your extraordinary talent!

    Could I ask you to give Luna and Lily lots of lovies from me?

    I'm amazed that you could capture those kind of photos with a digi...shouldn't be surprised I guess, all the pictures you take are awesome. the black and white certainly shows your cats from a different perspective, very interesting, I expected to hear them meow...

    As usual, every picture is superb. I love the 5th one down, and the one of Lily stretching. (Love them all, actually!)
