Merry Christmas! We celebrate the holiday with a kitty seen yesterday along Monroe Avenue (cross-streets withheld). This fine feline takes the day for posing beside a holiday tree. What could be more appropriate than that?
I used Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra to take the Featured Image and companion. Vitals: f/3.4, ISO 100, 1/125 sec, 115mm (film equivalent); 10:59 a.m. PST. The second: f/3.4, ISO 50, 1/60 sec, (synthetic) 230mm (digital and optical zoom); 10:59 a.m.
(Nickname) Christmas Cat is the one-hundred-forty-first furball found behind door or window—out of 619 profiles, including this one. I used Galaxy AI to remove my reflection in the glass and Microsoft Photos AI to remove the applied AI content watermark.
