Patches the indoor feral

Description

This is one of the rare photos I have of Patches who has been an indoor feral for 7 years. She has never left the house since we had her fixed and vaccinated, hides all over the house, rarely seen except eating time. I got this rare shot at ISO 10,000, flash, 1/180 sec, F/4, 47mm focal length, cropped and used Define to decrease grain but still lot remains. She is so pretty and extremely shy.

Exif: F Number: 4, Exposure Bias Value: 0.00, ExposureTime: 1/180 seconds, Flash: fired, compulsory flash mode, ISO: 10000, White balance: Auto white balance, FocalLength: 47.00 mm, Model: Canon EOS-1D Mark IV
