A photo essay by Jerry Galindo
Cats are often found today in households across the world. However not too long ago, they were often the window into the great unknown natural beauty of mother nature. I have complied and shot for the last 14 days photos of my beauties, Malley (Orange Tabby) and Gladdice (Siamese) through the lens of an observer. You will find that many of these photos either have them together, or seperated, either way I hope you will find that each tells a story, of what they felt, what they were doing, and ultimately what they planned to do in the future. I present to you, my children.
Malley (far right) sleeping inside a worn out shipping container, and Gladdice (far left) awake lying in a scratching post, both enjoying each others company while facing the camera in a relaxed fashion.
Gladdice (far right) reserved in a stationary conformable position on carper, while Malley (far left) is sitting outside the bounds that Gladdice is willing to sacrifice for safety.
Gladdice (center) venturing into the great unknown with upright tail and pointed ears, facing the increasing light, while her rear is still possessed towards the safe darkness.
Relaxed and hungry Malley (center) choosing to embrace the outdoors with shade striking his behind, the breeze of air forces him to lick his whiskers.
After gorging on dinner, Malley (right) is forced to reconsider eating all his food for the evening, now he awaits more food behind a woodsttained chair.
Malley (far left) is having to understand the nature of his limits at his home, by peering through balconies metal bars that limit his outdoor understanding.
Malley and Gladdice (center) have now forgotten about their expanding limitations of exploring the outdoor world, and are instead sleeping on a twin bed.
Close up of Gladdice (far right) under a glass coffee table, with a hazy reflection casted below.
Close up of Malley (far left) exposing the limited understanding of the indoor perceptions due to completely blurred back pelt and background, a worried and alert pair of eyes pierce thought the camera.
Both cats (far left and far right) personality traits encapsulate the use of lighting, with Malley’s adventurous self facing the outdoors, and Gladdice retaining to the indoor darkness.
