Social media effect, the odds are not in your favour. Comparing your random pictures to the best pictures of thousands of other people combined into one entity.

Mathematically, you shouldn't be able to randomly happen accross even one picture that compares, let alone is better than any one of the top rated posts on a social media site.

Having said that, pictures of a cat you care about automatically get bonus points to you and you'll like your pictures way more than what are effectively the equivalent of super model cats you don't have any investment in.

  My apologies, I took your post as though you were being serious. Wanted to explain that you shouldn't feel bad and why.

Orange, never had a turn with the braincell.

- He hears the screams of the bits of carpet he hasn't thrown up on yet.

Your cat is adorable

how I look in the mirror vs when someone snaps a picture of me

He looks so concerned! I love him and hope whatever he's worried about works out for him.

20
- I often question why he looks so anxiety-ridden all the time, as his day job is napping and property destruction.

look at your cat in the eyes and close your eyes slowly and leave them closed.

they need to know that you trust them

- I dont trust him.

Reminds me of Andrew Tate going to jail for some reason.

Me, looking at both the top and bottom parts: "These are the same picture"

This cat needs all the hugs, send him to my place, I'll hook him up.

He wants you to see his eyes

That cat has seen some things, man, and some stuff

Your cat gets more upvotes. He knows the social media game.

Pov: when your cat is equally depressed like you

5
I mean, I like yours better.

I've spent a lot of time trying to get good photos of my rabbits; it requires a good bit of persistence to get those nice pet photos.

5
Still beautiful imo

Perfection

This cat is obviously not trying to sell me something.

Oh don't worry he has a collage education and trying to pay off his debt

4
He is too suprised at all times.

A non-purrfect picture of a cat doesn't exis... oh. :-P

Oh hey, it's Spleens.

You just take shit pictures. Low angles, sometimes LOWER than the cat, plus bokeh [portrait mode on a phone]. Pay attention to your background and composure.

In each picture on top the lens is the same level or lower as the cats eyes.

- en, your mileage may vary on portrait mode. fur is what is struggles the most with. personally I'd go for getting close and letting the natural depth of field shine through for what it's worth. most phones are at like an f:/2.8. they can have natural bokeh, they're just ultra wide angle so you gotta get close.
  
  it may just be me, but those wonky edges make it look worse than if it just didn't have the effect at all.

  You're totally right. I try and push it so that the portrait process is just enhancing the already there lens bokeh. But when I really want it to look right I just get the Alpha.

- Depth of field is also playing a huge role in the stock "nice" images.
  
  5
- It's funnier to take bad pictures tho. Why else would I have a cat?

- It can also be difficult to take a photo of a moving cat. Some cats don't stay still long enough to get a decent shot.
