Great shot, very expressive, a blue-ribbon winner in my book also. The first link, web-photo-of-the-photo, looks better than the web photo link, because the web shot is just too dark compared to the one with the blue ribbon next to it. Anyway, the big guy looks like he's got the wisdom of the ages tucked away somewhere. Sorry to hear about the diagnosis. Losing a pet is very difficult. One of the young feral cats I take care of died of unknown causes last night, we found him this morning, it was very sad. One can't really be close to feral cats as if they were pets, but I like to think he knew me and trusted me a little, he allowed me to get close to him as I provided water and food every day. -- John Mustarde www.photolin.com
