The D1X Friggin Rocks

Gee, Rick, aren't you the same Rick Martin who had a different opinion the other day ????????

I'm also not so sure about your focus, just look at the nose compared to the eyes, very fuzzy indeed .

Hey, great shot, I love the way the eyes look. And the shallow DOF really draws you to them. Can you expound on the particulars, particullarly the lighting? The only thing that I find even slightly annoying is that blast of white below the cats jaw on the left side of the photo, right side of the cat. I actually like that slight yellow splash over the cats left shoulder.

Glad you have gotten your issue of the other day solved, these are great tools aren't they?

Hey Einstein,

I know that the depth of field is shallow in this pic. It was a grab shot the cat was sitting next to a window. I saw the cat, I took the pic.............
Personally I like the shallow depth of field in this pic.........

What lens did you take this with?

• Thanks, Ken

Ken, please note the "smiley face" in that comment, and then the "great shot" comment. And even the "And the shallow DOF really draws you to them". Sorry for trying to pop a bit of humor in there, as I said in the original post, and I will reiterate here, I think it is a great shot and I like it a lot. What part of that was lost on you? Is there some particular reason that you felt you needed to blow off at me? Again, I apologize if my attempt at humor offended you, but please read the rest of my post. As to getting this on a grab shot, that is all the better.

And last, but not least, please read the rest of my original post before deciding that I am some sort of jerk.

Oops, it's even worse, that should have said "Rick, please note" and here I'm the guy who says "read the whole post" :-( (big embarassed frown). Worst thing is I can't blame it on the Microsoft Spell Checker this time. My comments are directed to Rick, and I STILL like the cat picture. Sorry for the confusion, my bad.

Oh, by the way Ken, I haven't spelled my name "Frank" in a very long time .

(sheesh, sometimes I just annoy myself, and I always do it in front of an audience.....)

You are forgiven...... LOL

Gee, Rick, I'm so glad that you forgive me, but I'd still like to know why you decided to rip me in the first place?
