thanks for commenting, idk why but i love the 3rd one...

Great shots. That same lens is on my wishlist, but since I know it will be limited use, it keeps getting bumped down in priorities

Very nice! I have that lens and love it. How did you light these?

 

[SneakyMike]

Really likin' the second one

Limited use? Why do you say that? 100mm is a great focal length and I don't think this particular macro has trouble focusing to infinity, does it?

I like the first three. I think three is really different, at first glance it's like your looking at a computer generated image. Then I remembered it was a photograph, of a computer generated image, hehe.
The shot of the cat is a first i've seen.

The cat's eye is my favorite shot of the group. All of them are great shots, though. I have no complaints

thanks everyone for the C&C

Very nice! I have that lens and love it. How did you light these?

#1 - natural sunlight
#2 - room's white fluorescent, didn't want to blind the poor cat, lol
#3 - flash @ 1/8
#4 - flash @ 1/4 bouce off a wall
