About In just under nine months, my Z1 has taken over 20 000 images (majority of them pink, of course!). What better way to celebrate than to bring you an image of my Seal Mitted Ragdoll kitten, four weeks old :-) A cutie pie with his nose blaze and all :-)

He was sitting between two stacked cushions, sunlight coming through the window from behind. No flash used.

Mr S ... hold on with your thoughts ... think about the jam donuts, OK?

I was on my way down to look at some more of your way cool compositions and this image just grabbed......I don't know how it could not grab loads of people, whether your a cat fan or not this is absolutely adorable.
It's like it's a studio shot.
Very well done..

WOOOOOOOOOOOW!! Linn this is absolutely my all time favorite kitten picture. If you can't sell enough of these to afford a really fancy kitten palace something is wrong. I know several calendar companies that would jump all over this.

The Best - Bill

Everything is PUUUUUUUUUUUUUURRfect,your clever setup making the most of the backlighting,I just cant imagine how you get your kittens to pose so perfectly,absolutely adorable,just that little tilt to the head like a true professional.
The nose blaze just makes him even more special!!!
Great work.

Forgot to add that Mr. Spracklen's comment had me LMAO till tears rolled down my cheeks. Me thinks he doth protest too much, Linn, on his distaste for felines. Betcha he is a closet cat lover :-)

Those eyes will follow you around the room... I'm not worried about the camera taking so many shots. Does your trigger finger have a calious? Wonderful Photograph Linn, Great Colors and Awesome Clarity. Very well presented.

Thanks for sharing,
Your Friend, Peter

Purrfect! A beautiful tender image and the ivory cushion framing was inspired. Your kitties are all huggable henrys and I just want to bury my face in that fur and kiss that wee nose until my eyes swell up and I am sneezing non-stop (allergic I am but that will never stop me from having two of my own, allergy shots work well). I am glad I am far away as I would be broke and have a housefull of these adorable guys.

Ooooh Linn. Did you see Chris's Saturday upload. The critique page said:-
Who's a pretty boy then?
Chris Spracklen
and then he has to tell you all the pitfalls of caring for such cute animals. Well!! It struck me as hilarious.
Seriously though, this is a truly wonderful portrait. I love the face and the colouring around the nose. The eyes and PINK mouth look so sorrowful though. Don't think a D70 would have improved on this shot.
My compliments.
Den

Linn, this is great work in my opinion, a masterpiece. Have to show it to my wife. We love cats and you show here one so exceedingly cute that the hearts have to flow over. Technically and emotionally perfect and even though you deserve most of the credit for your technical prowess (The making use of the light alone is just phenomenal)as well as your artistic view and creativity your little cat just by itself adds the emotional content. This will go right to my favorites, and if you were not in there already for quite some time you now would be included on my friends list, my private Hall of Fame. Thanks for posting. Best regards Jorg

Mr S!! For your information ... MY kittens do not grow into monsters They are finely educated and would not dream of doing real cat stuff like eating birds and delivering the remnants on priceless persian carpets. Furthermore, they only use the very best scratch posts as they find the wonky little Chippendales much less satisfactory! :-))
Hairballs - well, ... no comment :-)) You have some too, don't ya?
Price? For YOU? A D70 will do nicely, thank you :-))
Your sweetest, dearest friend - forever and always
Mrs C :-)
PS : And to think your mum thought you were cute too - and look at you now
PPS : Did you know that people that hate cats come back as a rat in the next life? Shame, poor you :-)

Listen, Mrs. C., we all know that most things are cute when they're young and small!! Sheep, geese, tigers ~ you name it! Even my two 6'3" sons were cute and cuddly when they weighed 8 pounds each!! But look at 'em now! So don't let this little guy fool ya! For a while he'll be soft and cuddly and smooch up to you with those piercing blue eyes as if to see, 'You could eat me, I'm adorable!", but before you've turned around he'll be draggin' in minced up sparrows and spittin' out furballs, scratching the polish off your finest Chippendale chairs and leaving his hairs all over your best cardigan!

Nah, sorry, Mrs. C! You don't fool me! These little kittens grow into cats ~ and cats are BAAAD!

Nice pic though!

Best regards,

Chris ;-)

P.S. Just as a matter of interest, of course, and purely out of curiosity, how much would of these little guys cost? And?

P.P.S. Do you accept Euros?
