Perceive - Monomad Challenge

As part of this series of photographs and on the cover of this publication, you can see an old stray cat. It struck me as somewhat unusual to see an elderly cat living on the streets. Generally, and sadly, cats don't have a long life expectancy; at most, they can live between three and four years. Their lives on the street are plagued by disease, malnutrition, and fights with other cats that can lead to serious injuries. However, this cat is possibly about 15 years old, which is why I was drawn to photographing him. Or perhaps he's been cared for by all the people who live in that area, but even so, he lives, or rather, spends his time, on the street.

Besides what I've already mentioned, this series also has other focuses, ranging from contrasting nature and some architecture to my usual details like patterns on clothes hangers, a chessboard, or simply the composition of reflections—an aspect I enjoy capturing, but it had been a while since I last photographed reflections.

Well, the day is over. It was a very busy day because so many people were out shopping for the 24th. For me, it's always been just a normal day, like any other day of the year. Although, I always do something special with my wife, like dinner, because she really loves these Christmas days. But anyway, it's all part of everyday life. Tomorrow I'd like to go out for a bit and photograph some of that usual chaos on December 24th.

All photographs are my own.
