Patient Petography

Posthumous Publication Shows Off Impeccably-Timed Shots

These may seen cutesy cutesy, but these images were a labor of love for wildlife photographer Jane Burton, who has since lost her battle against cancer. I think they are pawfect, in fact.

Any animal lover will know how incredibly hard these images would be to capture. In some cases, Jane would wait patiently for up to four hours to get the shot.

All of these images have been collected into a publication called "A Cat's Life," which will be published posthumously.
