New Pics Of all 5 kitties *5 pics* Edited to add Phoenix

[kittycats_delight]

Been taking some pics and a few I really liked so I wanted to share them with you. Just one each of Vixen, Vega, Frost & Bella. Phoenix was her usual aloof self and as soon as she seen me coming with the camera made her escape to the top of the armoire avoiding yet another attempt at pics. I will get a good one yet. :p

So here they are.

Vixen first...I love the lighting her and how vivid her colors appear.

Vega next. Finally a really good look at those blue eyes of hers. They look exactly like this naturally.

Frost the monster next. You can just read the mischief and alertness in her eyes here and that head tilt was just too cute.

Bella finally. Bella is rather difficult to photograph. She doesn't like to look at you or the camera directly. She was in a very happy mood her and cooperated nicely.

I will work on getting a nice one of Phoenix. Even if I have to tie her down. LOL

That's all for now guys. Hope you enjoyed them.

Michelle & the italian 'catfia' :p


ETA: PHOENIX....I got a pretty ok one of her. She didn't take off for all of about 5 minutes. LOL It is so funny how much she HATES the camera.

Here she is. Last but certainly not least Phoenix.

I also love the coloring in the picture of Vixen, she sure is a lovely girl with her pretty colors and all that beautiful fur.

Vaga with those wonderful blue eyes... Makes me weak in the knees.. WOW! :eek:

Frost! What a little doll you are with that tilted head.... It makes you looks like a little innocent mischief maker.... "WHO ME?"

Bella! Bella! Bella! Your beauty is stunning with your beautiful black velvet fur. I adore blackies! Are you a Mommies baby like my Samantha?

Wow Michelle, those pics are stunning!! Thank you so much for sharing :)

Thanks you guys so much. They are I think some of the best I have taken of the cats. I pulled all the blinds high and used the newest flash hubby got me. It completely kills all glowing eyes and illuminates beautifully. I am not a fan of flash photography but this flash is pretty nice I have to admit.

I was having a fit yesterday cause I was getting specks on all my photos. I went and got a sensor cleaning kit and try as I might (hubby tried too) it was not cleaning up. After an hour of me trying everything in the book I gave up and was on the verge of tears. Hubby came home and had a crack at it. He was at it another good hour and still we had several specks. Well he thought it was impossible it could be on the sensor, the sensor filter, on the mirror. He decided to carefully clean the AF filter(autofocus) and sure enough that is where it was. He brought it in and said all clean. I was so relieved. He laughed and laughed at me cause he didn't realize just how much my camera meant to me. Well d'uh!!! Anyway, camera is perfect now so I am off to see if I can get a few good pics of Phoenix. BBS with a nice pic of miz cranky pants if I can.

(((((HUGS)))))
Thanks again for all the wonderful comments.

ETA: got a decent pic of Phoenix. I posted it in the original post. She took off after about 5 minutes. Man does she hate the camera. LOL

Great pix of your adorable furkids! :)

Great pics! I always like your threads with all the kitties (even if I don't post everytime). They are all gorgeous! I am melting at Bella's look. And Frost, what a special kitty!

I know what you mean with the flash. I also had a good one (my Christmas present) and it changes my life, especially now that I take a lot of indoor pics of my baby. No red eyes anymore.
