Chloe

[Diminished29]

In a dire attempt to improve my low light shooting, along came my cat--Chloe.

here are two shots I took of her, even if I had a nice tripod I don't think it'd be all that viable for taking shots of a cat since their always moving around and with the shutter speeds so low, I'm surprised they came out this sharp.

So, I'm asking you guys what could I do to make these even clearer and what about the composition?

These seemed to come out even sharper, instead of using Av mode like the above shots I put it in Tv mode, and adjusted the shutter to 1/160 so it didn't shake and messed with the lighting a bit, any help you guys can give me for any of these is more than welcome!

In my opinion the first two are properly exposed; the third is borderline over-exposed and the fourth is definitely over-exposed.

In picture #1 the color balance looks like you are under Tungsten lighting and that the WB is not sufficiently correcting.

In #2, the WB seems to be better and there is no noticeable orange cast.

Actually tungsten preset cancels the warm/orange cast for me on my Rebel XT; I use it all the time for indoor shots (without flash) for that very purpose. flash preset isn't bad for flashed shots, just tweak it until the white is white.

Cute cat; watch out for oversharpening causing jagged whiskers. #3 and #4 are gradually more overexposed. Flash Exposure Compensation is very handy.

I think #1 is best as far as environment, expression, etc., and #2 is second.
