Leanne Cole’s Monochrome Madness creeps up on little cat feet with
Scenes from The Life of “Brian”
otherwise known as
Firefrorefiddle, the fiend of the fell
“….In the Pantomime season I never fell flat,
And I once understudied Dick Whittington’s Cat.
But my grandest creation, as history will tell,
Was Firefrorefiddle, the Fiend of the Fell.”
(from-T.S. Eliot, Old Possum’s Book of Practical Cats)
Brian looks evil and likes to pretend he is but in reality he is very laid back
Nothing bothers him on his mountainside home
Here he is waiting patiently in the back of the truck with a critical eye on Ron’s parking skills (note the dangerous cargo sign)
and he really manages to light up Christmas
Stray Cat Strut
I got cat class and I got cat style!

I love your “fiendish” feline series. The b & w is lovely and startling at the same time!

Ha ha ha, .. Nice to meet you Brian!You are truly a very convincing character from T.S.Eliot’s “Old Possum’s Book of Practical Cats’ ,otherwise “The Theatre Cat”.I love your pure feline beauty and your “evil” side as your mum says.
I love love love him and your post dear Cybele,and your reference to the story with the poor orphan boy….Fascinating all your photos and nicely treated,the video is so sweet as well.Btw,I had attended the “Cats” musical performance in London,years ago,the music was fantastic.My favourite song was “Musical Cats – Memory”, with amazing music and lyrics :”Turn your face to the moonlight Let your memory lead you ….” I am sure you know it.A special hug to Brian from me 🙂 xxx

I love your writing so I’m sure I’ll love the next installment/chapter.
I love the glow and magical quality that fractal images project. They’re in the same genre as Orton Effect images are en mon avis; Really neat, and beautiful when used on the right image and at the right opacity.
It’s totally subjective so, in the end the artist’s vision is right, but I loved it!
