Annual Boat Ride

This is holly checking the weather conditions for her annual boat ride.
Another one in my series of Holly (my birman cat) in my husband's painting. It can be a challenge because she is camera shy! She does cooperate very well when treats are involved! Lol
I wouldn't be able to do this without the help of my husband, he manages Holly, the treats and the painting and I photograph!

Thank you for your lovely comments on my photo of "Holly and the Ice Berg"

Wonderful capture, Holly is just sitting in that boat!

[Henri Russell]

So she is really in front of the painting? I thought maybe you had used a layers process to put her there. I am even more impressed now.

@henrir Thanks Henri Holly is actually in front of the painting, no layers or PS! It can be very tricky and a two person job, thanks to my husband for helping!

[Lou Ann]

His is so great. Holly is awesome! She looks like she’s sitting in your husband’s in your husband’s awesome painting!

I love your husband's art work - beautiful scenes and colour tones . I do not think Holly is very enthralled at the thought od rowing out to sea !! ha ah -- especially when she can be in the warmth and comfort of your home ! Lovely image - waiting for the next one ! fav

What a great image...Holly is such a pretty cat.

[Al Bailey]

Awwww .... what a sweet kittie Holly is!

[Denise (lyndemc)]

It really looks as tho she's in the boat. Surprising that she's camera shy; she seems like a natural.

[Denise Wood]

Looks great :)

[Elisabeth Sæter]

Stunning shot

[Kenabeek Mike]

I like how well you've been able to match the lighting (colour, direction, softness) on Holly with the lighting in the painting. It really adds to the sense that it is one coherent scene, that either Holly is part of the painting, or that Holly really is sitting in the canoe.

[Sheralee S]

Well done to you both to get her to cooperate. It's a very convincing scene.

[Karly]

Wonderful! This must be kind of fun for the three of you .... well...for two of you:) These are just so unique!

[Jane Pittenger]

This is adorable and ever so clever

[KWind]

This is beautiful!

[Harbie]

This made me laugh so hard! Holly looks annoyed! My dog and cat refuse to look at me when I have my camera! They hate it.

great outcome ... gorgeous cat, very nice painting and photo

[Dione Giorgio]

Another stunning image. Fav.

[Islandgirl]

@harbie thanks Harbie I’m glad we three brought a smile to your face!
This is actually her good side Lol!
She usually turns her head when she sees my camera..........when I don’t have treats!

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Excellent job- both model and painting look like they belong together (although I'm pretty sure most cats don't like water!). It looks really natural.

[Joanna kate]

This works so well

[Mickey Anderson]

So very cool!!

[CC Folk]

Fav...almost the same pose as yesterday too! Love the painting too. :)

[Vesna]

Well done!
