Yes such a golden caramel beauty, ah the light is exquisite :)

@Lorraine: Thank, Lorraine! I was determined to catch him sitting in the morning light in the window... it took several days before he sat there long enough for me to get a shot!

Craig from Vacaville, California, United States

Glad to see your patience paid off! Well done!

Awwww, how wonderful, Betty. I love the backlit ears and of course the beautiful coloring.
This reminds us of our Butterscotch, back in the 70's.

@Judy: Thank you, Judy.

Viewfinder from Bradenton, United States

Beautiful. By his expression, I can see he figured out that until he finally posed you'd stalk him relentlessly. Cats have such hard lives.

@Viewfinder: Thank you! Yes, he eluded me many times... but I finally got him!

Betty, that is a superb image of the cat. The back light is wonderful, and the colors are great too.

Wow, incredible! The lighting makes the cat look so incredibly soft.

Anita from West Nottingham, United States

The backlighting shows why the cat is named Caramel, and shows off the beautiful fur! I especially like the whiskers caught in the light. Nice job.

@Anita: Thank you, Anita.

Chris from South Jersey, United States

Beautiful!! The backlighting is excellent - I never think to look or try to photograph that way (always get the sun to my back). More stuff to try now....

@Chris: Thanks, Chris. It's not something I thought to try, either... until I saw Caramel in the window one morning!
