Onz

Description

This is Onslow keeping track of the neighborhood from just inside the storm door window. Blurred the background, levels and curves, and a bit of a layer of "soft light." Will be viewing and commenting off and on today and tomorrow. I have two new lenses to try out this weekend, and it's going to be a rainy one! >F5.6, 1/200, ISO 1600, @300mm

Beautiful kitty, Debra!!! So do you watch Keeping Up Appearances on public tv? Is this Onslow as big a slouch? LOL He's really a very pretty cat with unusual markings! #1471236

Thomas June 16, 2005

A very nice portrait!
Regards,
Thomas #1479206

Debra Booth June 16, 2005

Thanks so much, Sharon and Thomas! I appreciate your comments!!

Well, I don't watch that show too much any more because I think I've seen all the episodes at least once, but our Onz is named after their Onslow. Our Onz is still a pretty feisty youngster, but he's getting a little bit more like the real Onslow all the time! LOL! He was a stray that turned up in our neighborhood. He certainly seems to favor living indoors to catching birds from the neighbor's bird feeder! #1479220
