My grandpa has just purchased a beautifull main coon kitten, she is only 3 months old! I love taking photos of her but sadly my 55mm f/5.6 does not cut it. I was able to take her out into the a nicely lit room yesterday and we had some fun. These are my first indoor animal pictures i have taken with the rebel, please tell me what you think.

She's gorgeous! Maine Coons are nice cats. A lot of people in an astronomy forum have them and are always singing their praises. I wound up with a Snowshoe. (see avatar)

thank you all so much for the comments,

and although her face looks different in some of the pics, they are all of the same cat

aparently the breeder said that she tried to breed a more "rough" looking cat instead of a cute calendar one. i find that some of my pictures of her look very cute, while in others she looks very majestic. I think #3 is a good example of this.

Thanks again for the comments,

Alex
