[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Otto was watching his Hockey Night in Canada and considering it was a slow and boring game (no fights) I turned my attention to my babe, Daisy. Grabbing my camera and laying on the floor in front of her. Took about 50 pics but for some reason this one became my favorite. Didn't do much to it pretty much just added a border and re sized (was even debating about the border)
Enjoy!!!

Hi Christan

Effective tight framing on the cat, with superb sharpness, lighting, & dof. Tfs!

Hello Christian,

This is a lovely portrait of Daisy!
She is very photogenic!
You have captured the details of her face very well, even down to the folded whiskers!

Now, can you imagine your border as a mouse hole! You can just imagine what the mouse would see!

Kind regards,
Bev :-)

You did well here with an exposure speed of 1/8s! Excellent sharpness.
A nice close crop and warm colour temp - you know I'm not big on cat portraits but this one is good.

Hi Christian
Photography is better than hockey (LOL) - The eyes have it - sharp and clear - can see the structure of the eyes. Lighting very complimentary.

Michel

What a lovely capture, Christan! Very good POV and how you framed the cuteness :) The overexposure on some parts is fine with the golden tone of the lighting. Very good macro!
Cheers!
Freddie :)

She's such a ham :-).
Excellent capture.
Love the composition.

Hallo Christan,
sehr schöne Nahaufnahme mit guten Details. Nettes Kätzchen:)

Very good focus Christan. A tight image with good colour and fine detail. Bothe eyes well captured which is something usually quite difficult with our feline friends. TFS,
David
