Out on the Cat Walk

A few nice Cat images I found:

Out on the Cat Walk

Image by David Blackwell.
During the Cat Wars, patrol duty was known among the soldiers as being "Out on the Cat Walk". The men looked forward to these patrols with some trepidation. Meet kitty during your walk and you were in serious trouble.

Are you strong enough? Look him in the eyes and View Large On Black

I started out to create a portrait of a soldier. I wanted to place him in a war zone but felt that was too much like a computer game. I added the landscape, then the helicopter, and finally searched for the right "danger" to place in the landscape. Voila! The Cat Wars were born.

Excuse me while I wipe a tear from my eye. It's all a bit much for me right now.

    My wife says that US patriotism (we perceive as strong) will lead to a serious humour failure with this picture. I say: have faith. :-) )

    Ha! I love your cat wars!

    You’re able to bring a lot of emotion in your pictures. It’s hard to do. You have a fantastic brain!

    By the way, my husband is nuts about your profile picture. Me too!

    And thanks for all your kind comments!
