Finally, no flash!

I know what you mean about the flash. I'm assuming your digital camera won't let you take pictures unless there's enough light right? And then if you turn off the flash the shutter stays open too long...
What you can do to minimise how the flash effects your picture is bounce it against the ceiling.
To do this you need a small hand held mirror which you place in front of the flash, like say between the flash and the lens of the camera. The effect of the flash will vary depending on what the light is bounced off, or in which direction you are reflecting the light. You can also try experimenting with bouncing the flash through colored paper. So instead of using a mirror you use a sheet of maybe red, or pink or blue paper, and just place it between the flash and the lense...

This works to a point, you need a certain amount of light to begin with otherwise it will still look quite flat...
But the more you experiment the easier it'll be.



I'm also assuming you don't already know this...


These are some photos of my baby Diesel, He passed away last year...
But his eyes are still as beautiful as they used to be...

(we miss him soooo much)

Pretty cats! It is hard to get true eye color, sometimes my cats look demonic because their eyes glow in pictures.

Yeah.... Everyone used to say that. He had the most amazing blue eyes... It wasn't so much the colour for me, it was the cat that came through the eyes that made them the way they were.

What beautiful pics of kitties here!



I really love Zoey's extra toe, it makes me smile!

I wonder if the extra toe that cats have could be a sign that cats are evolving and will, in a couple of thousand years have opposable thumbs....
That'd be so cool.
