I received my new camera today, and of course I had to snap a few
practice shots immediately. Keep in mind these are the first shots I
took with it:

Caliban with last year's wall calendar:

Mir with the zoom:

Without the zoom (the flash made her camera shy):

Great pictures! Of course you had great subjects, congratulations on the new
camera.

How can you go wrong with those two as your subjects? You could be using
my horrible little camera and they'd still look great.

Caliban looks a bit weasel-like in the head-upside-down (not to be confused
with "upside-downy-head") shot. :)

Thanks, Joyce. Their heads are swelling.

Weasel-like? Umm.... I don't think weasels are usually quite so fluffy. ;o)

Ferret-like? Same problem, I guess. I think it's the position of his head.
He looks "long and pointed". :) It's all about camera angles, I think!

I can never get enough pics of Mir and Caliban!

Mir looks sooo cute in the second picture!

These are great.  Much better color fidelity, too.  The kitties are
filling out nicely for the winter.

Nice shots!  I think you've figured the new camera out already.  But
don't stop!

Is it the angle or is MirMir not looking so skinny these days? They are
so adorable.

It's the angle. She has this habit of scrunching up when she's
matloafing, so that she looks small but round. When she gets up and
walks, you see that she is loooong and very thin. Not an ounce of fat on
her.

Here you go:

There are a couple more pictures of her, but this one shows best how
skinny she is.

You can almost feel how soft Mir and Cal's fur is just by looking at the
pics!

Great pics, Marina.  I finally got a chance to see your kitties.

Those photos are nice and sharp. What type of camera did you get (if
you don't mind me asking). I'm thinking about getting myself another
camera.
