Maybe it ate some E. coli and felt an urgent need for a bathroom?

Olá Ignacio! What a refreshing boat shot!
Not one of those sterile overly polished marina shots with technicolor saturated crispness, but a picture that leaves room for the dark side of the wet life.
Buildings on the left and right not fully visible, because when you sail with the elements stone structures don't matter anymore. Even the upper cloud is chopped at the top because the focus of attention lies below. Woodwork on the front boat chopped at the left side, stripes on the background boats suggests they are sinking.
Real Life is not Love Boat!
This is not the artificially smooth yacht lounge of Monaco. This is the struggle for fish and food!
Keep shooting them and keep those edges rough!

The cat was practising?
He/She's got that typical "you want me to smile in front of the camera? forget it!" cat-like look and the front paws are in the proper arrogant configuration. This is definitely not a begging dog!
But your cat should choose a better background. Too many colors and objects distract the eye from the only thing that matters: the holy catness.
A black cat looks best on a nice bright light contrasting background that doesn't draw attention away from the center of attention: the divine furryness. A little more practice and your royal catship will blast away the entire four-footed usefilm.com competition! And bouncing the flash or using natural light will display its eyes in full feline glamour.
Remember: you may hold the camera, but you'll always be your cats humble servant.

What a symbolic picture to illustrate why the US government changed the Copyright Act.
Walt Disney died in 1966. According to the old laws, Mickey would enter the public domain in 2016.
But with the new copyright act the Walt Disney Company can make money from the old mouse untill 2036. Twenty more years for the House of Mouse to figure out how to extend their patents even longer.
Chained indeed.

Don't photoshop the graffiti away! There are plenty of touristically correct pics of this tram, cleanly shining in daylight.
The darkness and the graffiti makes this shot stand out from the millions of others.

Great shot of the dark arch! Reminds me of some good times! Keep following the maze (turn right, then left, if I remember correctly) and there's a bar. You gotta ring the bell to get in, and when you make too much noise on the street the old neighbor opens his window and throws water on the drunks down on the street and and and...

Great frontal shot of the cat that refused to sit still. Whose fingers are we looking at here?
I wonder how they put those yellow-green contact lenses into his eyes. Oh well, they managed to tame a wild cat like you, so Valentino should be no problem...
