Interrupt My Bathing Session at Your Own Risk...

I have a lot of material for a new post that will take AMACA2Cs in a new international direction...........but it will have to wait as I'm a bit pressed for time tonight.  So instead, I offer you these photos that illustrate a classic principle of cat photography - if you want a semi-malevolent photo of a cat staring at you, interrupt a grooming session!

Cats in the Kitchen, Episode 2: Watch Out For Those Wine Glasses FuFu!

Its quite a quandary for a photographer, to branch out into video or not?  Should AMACA2Cs contribute to the voluminous amount of cat videos out there on the internet, or remain focused on artful (and sometimes not so artful) still images of cats (especially 2 particular cats)?  I do love the purity of capturing an ephemeral slice of time or magic moment that is the essence of photography.  That being said, most of us have passable video capability on our cellphones.  And if you like cats, how can you not use this from time-to-time to capture those moments that just seem to work better as video?  I personally don't use the video on the iPhone that much, but my lovely assistant does quite a bit, and captured this video of a cat raid on the wine glasses.  The following humble video is the first, but certainly not last video to appear on AMACA2Cs.
