Quit making excuses, admit you nailed it both shooting and processing! Paul

Paul - thanks. This was my second day out with this new lens, the Tamron 16-300mm. It is really sharp glass, and has vibration control which really helps. In addition, we had light rain during the morning, so the cat had probably been a bit wet. When he dried, he got "fluffy". Jim

This is excellent Jim, the detail is 2nd to none. And you better watch it because this is well worthy of numero uno. Paul

T - Thanks. I got lucky, as he was up in a tree in his cage, and I didn't need to shoot through dirty glass. The fence was close enough to me that I could shoot through it with minimal loss of light. Then it's just a matter of patience, waiting for that "right look". Jim
