The second one is actually an older picture I took only a few days after I got my digital rebel, which was my first DSLR.

Neither picture has enough depth of field.
The first shot has too much irrelevant material - need to zoom in on the one blossom.

The second picture is a little too close up - it needs more context (zoom out).

I'm really liking the first pic, maybe crop up from the bottom to try to eliminate some of that oof flower?

I LOVE #2. Just because of the subject.

I LOVE #2. Just because of the subject.I as well love the subject of number two but would have liked to see more of the subject and more of it in focus. Its a kitten right?

I am no expert but I really like #1 and I agree with zooming out some on #2 but it is a great capture.

I agree with Bob, the second one is too close in my opinion. Nice capture either way though.

thats exactly why cat tongues feel so weird, just look at them. lol not bad at all :)

Thanks for the cc :D

The second one, I was just holding my camera as far away as I could get it, which was about a foot, and snapping pictures. It was two days after I got the camera and I was just playing around with it. I'll have to try getting another sometime with my 50D.
And she's not a kitten. She's about 8 years old now.

Here's a few more of her.

This was taken the same day as the second pic in the first post. Just messing around.

I thought she looked funny here with that little bit of her tongue sticking out. Luckily I had my camera sitting next to me
