When I decided to relearn my SLR after shooting a digital point and shoot for several years I decided to use my new cat as a model. I set up the bamboo plant to add to the composition, composed the shot on the tripod and beckoned miko for her photo session. As you can see I was working with window light, and the shadow is caused by a halogen lamp. I figured since I was on a tripod I would shoot with a small aperature and low shutter speed. One thing I failed to remember until I got the prints back. Cats move. shutter speeds of 1/15 and 1/30 do not work with cats :P
