Kitten Portrait C&C

[Markw]

I caught our little girl staring at a fly after just waking up. Grabbed the gear, and started shooting. This was the best one. C&C welcome if you feel so inclined.

I think it's a cute photo
The only thing I don't like is that you cut off parts of her tail, but really it's not a big deal.

I know!!
This isnt a crop, so there wasnt anything I could have done about that. I didnt notice it until after I shot it and she went for the fly. Thanks, though. =]

Ah okay, spur of the moment then! How old is she?

 

[Markw]

Right. I was lucky to get the flash on in time. She is about 4 weeks old.

Verrry cute. Black cat ... not an easy feat to photograph!!! Very hard to get all the detail right. Yes, a pity about the tail, but with those EYES it is no big deal, as has been said. The first thing everyone sees are those eyes, anyway, I should think. Then the smallness and the cuteness ... voilà, you are being forgiven!

Thanks! I got a few more when she fell back asleep, they show that she's a cute kitten, but not anything fantastic photographically, though. Ill post them a bit later just for fun.
