This photographic tribute to our feline friends provides a uniquely intimate appreciation of cats by depicting them au naturel, going about their day in domestic comfort or exploring the wild, blinking and snoozing in the sun, batting at toys, curled up in an armchair, play-fighting with siblings, dangling from ledges, perching and pouncing, and purring with pleasure. Artfully shot by an acclaimed photographer in sensual, rustic settings, these images of many breeds manage to achieve something remarkable by capturing the very essence of feline nature. With a poetic, insightful text and chapters devoted to adorable little kittens along with close-ups of the most mysterious of all beastly aspects, the cat’s eye, this special volume practically crackles with the sounds of our contented whiskered companions—and their human admirers.

Hardback. Condition: New. Taking photos of cats is not a photographer's job: it's something that surely involves a fairly good skillfulness in using the camera and its lens as well as a love for cats and for animals in general. A cat will never do the thing you'd like him to do in that moment and try to force it would be the worst thing one could imagine. On the contrary, if the cat feels that the photographer's vibrations correspond to its own world, to its dynamics, it will give us a never ending number of fantastic poses. Adriano Bacchella succeeded in photographing them in each moment of their day, in various environments, catching their deeper nature. Seller Inventory # 0095100
