I didn’t expect the picture to come out like this!

This unusual photo of Annie, one of our four cats, was a bit of an accident. It was late afternoon, and I had put a dish of food on a window sill for Annie.

Then I went out side to assess the results of the day’s window washing project. When I saw the cat in the window, I grabbed my iPhone and realized I could see myself taking the photo, reflected in the newly cleaned window.

But I didn’t realize that the dark gray marking on Annie’s back would function as a mirror and deepen the reflection.

In any case, the man-cat image just works.
