Woken up by the Cat Bed Cam

My new point and shoot Nikon P7100 has a swivel screen, so I thought I would use it on my sleeping model.
I had just placed the camera in the cat bed when my unamused model woke up and glared at me.
Should we have another Weekly Challenge with the theme "Annoyed" I will try this again.

The image above was taken for the Weekly Informal Challenge (Week 80): "Low Perspective"

This is how Virby looks at me in the mornings when I don't respond to her "feed me, NOW!" proddings. ;)

I think I definitely have to get one (the camera, not the cat)! Phenomenal shot, Walter. ~BV~

The trouble with cats - they will never act the same - especially if you want them to...

Terrific shot of your sidekick! Smiles.
Was wondering about that camera... have read lots of glowing reports.
Anyway, you'll put it to excellent use I'm sure.

That is toooo funny! Very nice capture. V
Marcia Rules24-Oct-2011 00:16
HA! Diego would rather eat lint than be photographed ! V
LynnH23-Oct-2011 23:55
He always looks a bit miffed, a reluctant model. Perhaps he prefers his staff would be preparing lunch instead of taking photos! LOL V
