My brother and his GF just got a new kitty! (Worst lighting imaginable, I need to save up to actually buy a strobe.)




The cat has extra toes (complete with claws) on each paw. So it looks like she has thumbs. What's that called? Polydactylism?

So I packed up my Salvador Dali print of two blindfolded dental hygienists trying to make a circle on an Etch-a-Sketch and headed for California.
Took some awkward Christmas card photos for a co-worker, and figured we'd get a good solo shot of the dog while we were at it. I'm pretty proud of this.

As well you should be, though I would strongly consider getting corrective surgery for the dog's vision. Too many dogs break their glasses.

A little while back there was a goon that did some amazing jumping cat shots with nice clean (white seamless, I think) backgrounds. Does anyone remember who that was?

This thread needs more dogges, and racing dogs aren't exactly pets, but I think they'll fit in here.

Alaskan Huskies aren't the purebred prettiness of Siberian Huskies, but they'll get the job done.

What better way to test a new camera than cat pictures?

I cannot believe this is 25,000 ISO:

If they made doggie anti-depressants this could be the picture to use on the advertising poster. I love the photo but go give the poor little guy a treat or something!

Doing white balance in a room painted red only lit by xmas lights makes white balance hard. Kind of a sloppy photo that I had just intended for catstagram but I like it.

Back when I first got my camera, I was a lot worse at taking pictures. (I'm still lousy, but, hopefully less so.) Taking pictures of Black Dogs at the dog park was a nightmare.



Utterly horrific. :cry: Look at all that nuclear fallout.

I picked up a new, and my first, dslr just before christmas and have been playing around taking pet pictures to try and get the hang of it. Getting the lighting and iso right is certainly going to take more work but I have gotten a few shots that are at least decent from what I can tell.

Whenever you shoot in snow you'll want to set the exposure compensation to overexpose by a stop. That way you'll get better detail in darker subjects.

I would love to duplicate this image. I'm kinda new, can you tell me what settings you used? Guessing a blown out f stop and a relatively high ISO setting?

Pretty much. Get a fast lens with nice BOKEYS, shoot wide open, and crank the ISO up (that's where the fuzzy noise is coming from).

Don't forget to beg and plead with your cat for 45 minutes to sit still in the same spot long enough to get the shot.

Sure - 50mm, f2, ISO 3200, 1/100. Quite a number of adjustments in Lightroom. Here is the untouched original for reference:

You've got some funky colors and noticeable halos around your dogs. Did you do some crazy post processing?
