yes - this is a great looking cat! Does it have some tiger in its bloodline? Great markings.

Would love to see a pic with more of the cat in focus in that sharpness.
But asking a cat or tiger to cooperate is like scupting with jello

I love that cat picture too, it's gorgeous, they eyes look fantastic and the sharpness is WOW!

great cat pic. put that cat in some boots and a hat!

I see a striking similarity here....

Nice Bengal! I'll have to post a picture of mine... you'd think I stole your cat!!!

Not the best shots, but a couple from a few minutes ago taken with the 50.

nice shot WillyB. did you invert your tripod or just flip the picture?

Hehe, very creative!

Thanks guys

I turned the camera upside down, I could have just flipped on the comp, but when I look back on the camera it gives me a good idea if it's a good shot or not.

Finally got my fifty in and I'm loving it! Here's a couple from a buddies collection C&C always welcome. Photobucket is down at work so I was only able to post links. -Chris-

what the heck?? I've never seen such tiger markings on a cat in my life - and not only do I see one on a thread I'm subscribed to - but 2 different people have a cat with tiger stripes on the same thread???

is this cat a certain breed?

Ok - who is going to take photos of their tiger-cat in front of jungle plants first?

Digipanther - Tehehe, I am not sure what breed of cat is it either, but one of my cousins had it for a very long time. But hell, it looks awesome . There are a few more pictures of it on my flickr, check the sig. All of them werent taken with the 50mm though, but the 18-55mm kit lens is wonders too.

it's a bengal, they were bred from a domestic cat crossed with an asian leopard-cat http://en.wikipedia.or​g/wiki/Bengal_(cat)
they love water, and their kittens dont 'mew' like normal kittens, they chirp like cheetah cubs or baby crocodiles, its very cute
and their fur glitters gold in sunlight - very cool cats
