It ain’t easy if the cat don’t cooperate. Tillie does not – cooperate. She looks at me once in a while and disdains to cooperate as though it were a duty. I have to wait, hold the camera in front of her eyes, press the shutter, and hope for the best. I go with the theory that even a blind squirrel gets a nut once in a while. Sure enough, I get a good focus on her eyes and we are in business. Tillie doesn’t help me. Nope! Patience is the key. I wait her out. She ignores me. She forgets she is ignoring me. I get the shot. Easy!
