caturday

I’m not sure what’s happening these days with the oldest cats, Beau and Luke, but they’ve both decided they want to sit in the box tops/bottoms I leave on the floor for the youngest cats to chew apart. Beau for his part now wants to sit on what was originally a box bottom for the dog’s wet food. Danï chewed apart the sides, and managed to destroy one whole side hidden by Beau’s bulk. But Beau still wants to sit and finds it comfortable and/or comforting, I’m not sure which. Tomorrow I vacuum up all the chewed up cardboard pieces (again) and then mop the kitchen, cleaning up for another week of Cats and Dogs Living Together.

Another Luke portrait. He’s always good for a photo or two any time.

I’m still experimenting with the Lumix G9’s internal color settings. Right now I have Photo Style set to Vivid, with Sharpness +1 and Saturation +2. I’m trying to get that old Kodachrome 64 look. I’m also using the M.Zuiko 1.8/75mm, which has its own “personality” with regards to color and sharpness. It’s a tremendous lens no matter what body it’s mounted on.

Contemporary digital cameras, such as the Pen F, EM-1 M2, and Lumix G9 have beautiful color production capabilities. I will not spend a single moment in post on an image except to read them off the card and do some cropping and straightening. This is a JPEG out of the G9.
