the Master and the soft spot

when i one day get a kitty, i will become a full time kitty photographer... so what's the soft spot? is the kitty mine (i admit!), or is the kitty his soft spot, OR is the guy with the gas mask the kitty's soft spot, he keeps him around just for the heck of it, to have someone pet him... or maybe this photo is your soft spot?

i went to Toronto to take this shot. i admit my #1 subject was the person in the background, but somehow it almost turned into a kitty photo... seriously tho, Arc Dym, the guy, was awesome in helping me out with this shot. i only had one flash and ended up using the other side of a Cure poster as a reflector... his props, the jacket and gasmask, were pretty cool for the shoot as was the chair which is originally from a mental institution. Duke then again, the cat, was not a very willing model and making him stay still and look at the camera was tough. i was lucky to get this shot.

some of you won't like the fact that i focused on the kitty but i think his pose kinda demanded it

models: Arc Dym & Duke
