Awww worra gorgeous little puddy tat! He looks as though he gonna be a right character too!

I love them both but that second picci is superb imho. I love the composition, the point of focus and, above all, the pose and expression of Theo.

The second one is technically excellent, but I think it makes the kitten look a bit sinister!

Of course it does but that's what makes it such a belter!

Re: Couple of Kitten Shots

Hey thanks for the positive comments

The first one, I tried to get a slower shutter speed to get the paw blurred as he played with his little mouse. Sadly, the focus on the head isnt quite 100% (its close though!)

I liked the second one, it took ages to get it though as the kitten was quite timid, but we got there in the end.

The shots were taken with my now favourite lens, it was the 50mm F1.8 to get the narrow DoF, and to allow a little extra light in as they were taken indoors with some interesting lighting effects coming through the window.

What a lovely cute kitten.
The 1st is a cracker and the pose of the 2nd makes it look like a big cat stalking prey.
