Amazon.com Review
Cats in the Sun is the product of Hans Silvester's three-year investment in photographing the cats of the Greek Cycladic Islands. Every picture captures the essence of the unspoiled Mediterranean landscape--sun-drenched villas, a sparkling sea, and shady olive groves. Dominating this exquisite panorama are hundreds of cats, respected--but not domesticated--by locals, happy to have the army of mouse-catchers nearby.

Definite classes of cat exist on the Cycladic Islands: there are the true rogue cats--scavenging for food, unkempt, with a missing piece of ear or two--and then there are the more privileged class members, regularly fed by Islanders and allowed the honor of a doorstep on which to perch (but still denied entrance into the home). The individualism of each cat is evident in every portrait--a mother nurturing her brood of kittens, a cat frolicking in the gentle swill of a wave, a cat peeping through a paint-peeled window frame. Cats in the Sun is an astonishing collection of photographs that captures the true spirit of the beloved feline.

Product Description
Praised by The Atlantic Monthly as " ... the finest pictures ever taken of cats," Cats in the Sun is now available in a stunning paperback edition. An international favorite since its original hardcover publication in Spring 1994, this spectacular collection of enthralling, full-color photographs portrays an array of serendipitous and thoroughly charming cats against a backdrop of the beautiful Greek Isles. Combining the romantic beauty of the Mediterranean and the delightful behavior of felines, Cats in the Sun will appeal to cat lovers, travelers, and photographers alike.

5 out of 5 stars Hans Silvester's Cats in the Sun   January 14, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

Hans Silvester captures not just cats, but the Mediterranean ambience in these gorgeous photos. His years spent photographing and learning about these felines are apparent. The color and composition of his photos is amazing. He has chosen to show us the real cats...not some cute, little, studio-posed furball. These are cats in their natural habitat going about their daily routines. This is a must have for cat lovers.


5 out of 5 stars lovely calendar   January 9, 2008
This is my second "Cats in the Sun" calendar. The photographs are truly lovely, and not just because I adore cats. I was introduced to this photographer from a book by the same person, by the same title, with many more scenes of cats in the Mediterranean. It's a real treat to see every day.


3 out of 5 stars From the Sublime to the Ridiculous   December 24, 2007
Hans Silvester is by far the best photographer of cats you are ever likely to see. Extraordinary. However, the design of the calendars is horrendous - the print unreadable from any distance more than 10 inches. The previous and next month calendar on each page is readable only with a magnifying glass.


5 out of 5 stars Cats in the Sun Calendar   November 14, 2007
I buy this calendar every year. It's a "must have" for true cat fans. No clothing on the cats, just beautiful cats in sunny Greece.


5 out of 5 stars they bring fortune   November 10, 2007
The cats and kittens in the sun are everytime so nice to see, you feel happy watching the photos. It's easy to understand that Hans Silvester loves them and you will love them too.
