taken a good pic


hi all

i am having trouble taken a good pic of my girl
as you may of noticed on the pic page.
she is really fluffy and has a lot of colour coming though on her back but i cant seem to catch this, and i also seem to always get the flash in her eyes even when i dont use 1.

i always brush her before a pic is there any thing eles i can do? and what is the best way to take a pic?

all info will be tried out

Natalie

Hi Nat! I am a complete beginner as I only had my digi camera for Christmas! I'm sure someone will come up with some suggestions for you though as there are some really good pics on Catpages.

On second thoughts, what I would suggest is that you always have your camera close to hand so you can get a good natural photo - Mittens doesn't have to look at the camera. Good luck!

It's the luck of the draw Nat! Have you got a digi camera? Try taking some in black and white, I find the flash does not get their eyes and they look contemporary.
