POTD #6

Here is one of my furbabies. She was peeking between the wall and the stairway. I used my Tamron 75-300, shooting in manual. ISO of 1600, and exposure 1/20 at f/4.5. Focal length of 136 mm.

I did have to perform a levels adjustment to cut some of the yellow-cast from not using a flash.

Gentle constructive criticism appreciated. I'm in the learning phase, and I'm not ready for too much honesty! LOL!

I think this is a great shot. I can never get a shot of my cats. They move way to much for me!

Awww... I like this one. My cat is so hard to photograph. You make it look easy.

What a beautiful cat. This is a great capture. Animals just do not like to stay around for pictures.

good job on the levels and dof. i also think you nailed the focus on the cat's eyes. the shot still has a bit of yellow cast but i think it adds a warm feeling to it.
