Various cats frequent Lacock Abbey. This one seemed to have dominion over the gardens. There is a decent building in the gardens for indoor plants. At least, we think it is for indoor plants. The cat thinks it is for cats, or more accurately, cat, singular.

Nikon D90 + Sigma 15-30mm F3.5-4.5 lens.

Photographed with a Canon EF 35-105mm f/3.5-4.5 lens on a Canon EOS 30D camera. Lens at 35mm, as wide as it will go, but that is equivalent to 55mm on a full frame camera. The cat was most obliging but being unaware of its love of the camera I shot hurriedly with the settings left from the previous use: 1/1000th shutter; f/8 aperture; 800 ISO. Whereas none of those would have been my unhurried choice, they suited the cat well enough. The bokeh is not so good, but it's often that way with a slow zoom lens anyway.

I do not have a cat and so, when faced with an overwhelming urge to take a photograph during a spell of inclement weather, I use this as a subject instead. It's a kind of surrogate cat. I have noticed it is not as animated as a proper cat, but often it is not possible to discern much movement in a cat anyway. Hence the popularity of cats as subjects for photographers. QED. Nikon D700 with a 50mm f/1.8 AI lens. I am a big fan of 50mm lenses.

This friendly cat frequents the grounds of Lacock Abbey. Nikon D700 + AF Zoom-Nikkor 35-70mm f/2.8 lens.

On a pleasantly warm day, what better to do than stretch out in the flower bed for a bit of shut-eye. Obligingly, however, this feline agreed to be photographed by a succession of visitors, astutely recognising what side its bread was buttered on. Nikon D2Xs + Nikkor 50mm f/1.8 AI lens.

Canon EOS 40D + Canon EF 35-135mm f/4-5.6 lens.

Fujifilm FinePix S3 Pro with a Nikkor AF-D 85mm f/1.8 lens.
