This is my friend's new kitten, Julius.
aka Joolz, Orange Julius, OJ
I had originally wanted to get a shot of him in the air, and had my friend use a toy to tempt him. But when I went through the shots after, this pose won out over everything else. I was also using not only natural light, but also backlight, and he wouldn't stay in a single plane, so half the shots were oof.
Of the 27 species I've made portraits with, I find cats to be the hardest to photograph.
Technically, he IS in the air, as the paw that's "on the ground" barely is.
