Description: Product Description
Now in paperback, Kittens in the Sun is full of "enchanting full-color images that capture the essence of everything feline" (Cat Fancy). Once again, photographer Hans Silvester offers us a transporting look at the feisty four-pawed critters of the Greek Isles and their whitewashed paradise. Silvester is never more at home than when training his camera on feline bliss Mediterranean style, and here it just gets better as he narrows his focus to the smaller and fuzzier members of the family. Atlantic Monthly has described his work as "the finest pictures ever taken of cats."


Amazon.com Review
A respected photographer whose previous books include the bestsellers Asleep in the Sun and The Mediterranean Cat, Hans Silvester has captured the imaginations of readers worldwide with his unique and endearing photographs of the cats of the Greek Islands. He returns to this sun-drenched setting once again with Kittens in the Sun, focusing on the youngsters of the furry set:

Even as they begin to explore the world around them, the kittens grow rapidly into little cats. Clumsy at first, they begin to investigate their surroundings. Curious and playful, bursting with energy, they encourage one another to venture further and further away from home.

The breathtaking beauty of the islands serves as the ideal backdrop for these frolicking felines, whose daily to-dos--including pouncing, playing, and, of course, lounging--are expertly documented by Silvester's trained eye. And while they'll soon grow to be independent cats, this brief moment in their tender and all-too-cute lives will forever live in Kittens in the Sun.
