Here is our set of outtakes for September 2008 that didn’t quite make the grade for a normal post but still had a certain visual appeal from a purely accidental perspective. A type of feline happy photo accident if you will. Either way we hope they make for some interesting viewing. Enjoy, and we’ll see ya next month with more outtakes.

Heads up

Here is our latest set of outtakes for February. We took a bunch of pictures in February and as usual some just don’t turn out the way we had hoped. None-the-less these pictures are visually interesting, unique and worthy of the title ‘Outtake’.

So what makes a good outtake? It’s hard to say really. Most of the time it’s based on personal tastes. You either like it or you don’t. There are images that are just no good such as the bad exposures and out of focus shots or where someone has blinked, looked away or had some gunk on their chin.

A good outtake for me usually has some kind of artistic quality to it. Therefore I look for abstract things like shape, form, texture and color. Other elements like composition and subject matter have an impact too.

Anyways, I hope you find something that appeals to you in our latest set of outtakes.

Enjoy!

Our last set of outtakes where so much fun, we decided to make it a regular feature here on Band of Cats.

Since we’re always trying new things with the camera there’s always a few shots that don’t quite work out but are still kind of interesting in their own unique way.

Like the Joker said in Batman, “If you wanna make an omlette, you gotta break a few eggs.” These are some of our ‘broken eggs’ but worth keeping.

Therefore, each month we’ll be collecting up the more abstract and accidental pictures of cats we taken and letting everyone take a look.

So, for all the impressionists, surrealists and lovers of accidental photography, sit back and enjoy our latest set of outtakes for January 2008!

With all the pictures taken of the cats there’s bound to be a bunch that just don’t work out the way we had hoped they would. You win some , you loose some.

Rather than letting them go by the way-side, I thought I would share some of the finer moments when the Band of Cats weren’t cooperating or the camera decided to take on a life of its own.

So here is our first installment of our Band of Cats outtakes. We hope they appeal to the Dada artist in all of us. Enjoy!

Dax gets too close. Cameras are good to rub on.
