A normal morning

We already know that cats and the sun generally get along well. Fortunately, where we currently live, the sun comes in in the morning. I like it better that way because it helps to get up and those first rays of the morning are very good. Our cat Miñe seems to like it too. It's part of her morning routine to get some sun.

In the mornings I do various things around the house, and so does Miñe, so sometimes we are close, we overlap spaces and we watch each other. But this time I decided to take my camera and take some pictures of her to see how they would turn out in that harsh, direct light. Working with a fast speed and high sensitivity I was able to eliminate quite a few elements that were in the background and avoid distraction. It's a way of practicing with my camera, you know, making more friends to push those buttons without even seeing them.

She looked like she wanted me to take pictures of her. That doesn't normally happen. She started rubbing herself on the floor, wiping her paws, raising her head to the sun and squinting her eyes while constantly changing positions. If you have cats, you know what I'm talking about: they lie down in one direction and start moving, turning, and end up on the opposite side. It's hilarious.

The last week has been full of bright, very clear sunrises. Cloudy days have been absent. So it looks like Miñe will have more sunny mornings to take advantage of this time of year. Whether it's with the door open or at the window, she will always have a good place to do one of her favorite habits.

See you next time!
