Still in Montmartre cemetery, looking a decaying mausoleums and monuments and avoiding the tripod police.
There are supposed to be some really famous people entombed here, such as Emile Zola (who?) but all I managed to find was this stray cat, who kindly posed for me in front of this wonderfully derelict door.
This was quite a long exposure due to the low light levels but the cat didn't move a muscle. However, I must confess to a moment of Photoshop fun when I coloured the cat's eyes to match the door!
Don't worry though, the eye colour is on a separate layer and I can switch it on and off at will!
