Who could guess that we would return to the “1917 House” for another look (seriously, no pun intended; maybe) at Halloween peepers just four days later. My previous daylight shot simply misses everything that makes the scene in darkness. I unexpectedly happened by this evening; 8:27 p.m. PDT.
The Featured Image is the last of three and surprising choice from Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra. I had expected to share the 50-megapixel capture, but the 12MP is more detailed and truer to color. Vitals: f/1.7, ISO 1250, 1/25 sec, 23mm (film equivalent).
Half a block beyond, I came upon Reddy, as he appears in my “Cats of University Heights” series. His current caretaker calls him Jinx. But the house where the ginger was hanging isn’t where he lives. His home is up the way and around the corner. Portrait vitals: f/1.7, ISO 2000, 1/7 sec, 23mm (film equivalent); 8:29 p.m.
Back at our apartment, my heart sank looking at his portrait. The aged longhair is missing one eye, and the other looks cloudy to me. Gosh, could he be blind, or nearly so, now? I will ask next time I see his owner—although there are questions about who owns whom, but that’s topic for another day and applicable to many cats.
