yes, most cats are ;). The picture is pretty sharp though.


And they're all made out of ticky-tacky
And they all look just the same.

I think it's sharp but I wanted a second opinion so I asked Gizmo:

He agreed the image was sharp but the subject matter was lacking.. :D

That a lovely picture and it looks perfectly sharp to me.

I'm always very envious of people with cats that actually have a little bit of colour, contrast and detail in their markings. Below is Max...he is very happy to have pictures taken but black cats just don't seem to work for the camera.

Any more light than this and he just looks a bit messy.

I do love him though. :D

try cutting back your exposure by 1/3 to 2/3 of a stop. i have three black cats and they can be tough :D.

OK I'm going to have to disagree on all these shots being sharp.
I think they are soft....and furry. ;)

indeed....I got another opinion...she seemed to have a similar expression I did when I saw the 'unsharp' photo.
