 I went to a cat show. They were having a costume competition. I had in the back of my mind maybe there would be an idea for a fairy tale. When I saw the cat dressed up as a Queen fireworks went off in my head!!! I was able to get some pictures. People at pet shows are very friendly and the owner actually posed her for me. I started planning and decided I needed to find a castle. My wife reminded me of an old school building that might serve the purpose. It was only 5 minutes from home so I took a ride. It was perfect. I wondered if there was actually a fairy tale about a cat queen and to my surprise there is an old English fairy tale of a Queen Cat. Here is the You Tube link if you would like to watch it.

Bonus points for a cute cat! Royalty no less. Great idea for the composition as she addresses her subjects. The lighting or something kind of makes the cat look more pasted onto the image rather than part of the scene.
