The cat at High Street

A cat crossing the street
I pass by this spot everyday, and I've taken pictures of High Street from this vantage point many times, usually in the afternoon when the sun is shining through the street, illuminating, in a dreamy way, this sometimes quiet street which is amongst the oldest in the city.  Yesterday I was "walking my camera", and as usual, stopping and snapping away, waiting for interesting things unfold along the street.  Man, there was so much happening I could be here all day!! And the sun was also playful too, playing hide and seek, and changing the mood, sometimes with an overcast, leaving the reflections off the roof of the cars standing out from the dim pavement.  Other times, it shone a spotlight onto a few spots like in this picture, leaving me the only one excited, hoping to have the right thing happening, and then this!!!  When I spotted the cat rushing from the right to the left, I really have time for only 2 snaps.  Continuous shooting wasn't my forte, I always shoot single frame at a time.  I'm happy with my shutter finger instinct, and caught the cat action in high time.
