First post ::wave

Still learning to use my camera. Einstein the cat is my guinea pig.
He's pretty ordinary.. and so are my photos :scratch

Would appreciate any tips on how to make any of these shots more "challenge worthy".

cheers!

    welcome to dgrin and the challenges.

    i think the 1st one is the one that conveys 'ordinary' the best, tho i'm sure Einstein would tell you he's noting of the sort!

    Hi Geek,

    Welcome to the challenges!

    I like your first one best - a cat may be ordinary, yes, but I think your Einstein
    is more than that :) Very nice cat and shot.

    All nice shots of a very pretty cat.

    In #3, I am bothered by not being able to see his nose. I like the angle.

    In #2, the background is a bit distracting.

    I will try and do something like #2 again with a cleaner background but my subject isn't very cooperative. He spends his time either trying to play with the camera strap or trying to put nose prints on my fish eye :D

    Oooohhh, aaahhhh! I like the last one!

    The toy tail leads my eye to his face.
