Auto settings, natural light. I applied a few filters in Paint Shop Pro to give it a soft watercolor effect. Comments are welcome.

Thank you.Pamela K September 01, 2004
Nice shot! I really like how the colors of the cat and the carpet blend into one another and really make those eyes stand out. Also, the lines formed by the ears are really nice.Pam #749254

Hi Tonya,Thanks for the comments on my cats photo. Wow, what a beautiful cat. If I am going to get another cat that's what kind of cat I'd like. I want the more darker markings. I think that is just gorgeous. :) Don't you just love their soft fur. Now when you pet other cats do you find their fur more course hehe? I'm spoiled with my two beauties. The other picture of my cat is also a ragdoll she's a tortie. Is your cat a male? I love the tones in this photo and a great expression. :) #3126262

Thanks Holly for your comments..Rags is female with attitude.. lol If she wants something (food etc) she will let you know it. But I still love her very much. She was a tiny little thing when I rescued her, not she's at least 15 pounds, maybe more... I do find her fur softer than the other 3 cats I have but never really thought about it. Until now. lol #3127136Sign up for an interactive online photography course to get critiques on your photos.
