Ebb Then Flood doesn’t usually deal in cat memes, but I couldn’t resist putting up this shot of the family feline resting in lavender bushes recently.
Looking for all the world like a patch of soil amongst the leaves and flowers, a watchful golden eye betrays his presence.
And when he finally emerges from his clandestine possie, the sweet and cloying odour of the lavender flowers stays on his fur… perfumed puss!

‘Shadows / Light (Blue)
A different take on the image featured in my last post – this time with a blue tinting . It’s less stark somehow. The interesting thing about shadows is that they rely on the strength of light for their definition. Without the strong light there is only the object that is projected . There is a wonderful cinematic quality in great shadows. Recolouring the image in blue in this case is just adding to the cinema of light.
