Great capture of your cat. Beautiful fur, almost radiating white light.
Thank you very much! He really has a softer fur than a teddy bear, but it is also much work to keep it in good condition for him. It's always a difficult balance act to keep the detail in the fur and to keep it bright enough, I'm glad that you like it

It is one of those photo that made me want to hug the kitty, I know I can get some sneeze, and scracth, even if I can get close enough.
Great rendering on that shot, and also the portrait had very nice lighting.

Don,
Great shot of your pal. Lighting is very nicely wrapping around.

D700 ZF.2 35/2 at f2
Cross posted from other thread. Experimenting with shooting wide open. It seems to lose a critical contrast on the well lit area. This must be a result of slopp[y PP and shooting wide open combined. Played with bumping contrast locally, and got worse, so this one is less processed. Cropped slightly.
-Update -
PS lens correction killed my intent. Interesting. This one is better as it aligns with my intent and does not give me the horrible cringe along my spine.

I still have a slide from the first roll of 35mm film I ever shot. Winter of 1970 and I had bought my SLR, a Praktica Nova 1b. It's a tree and it's over exposed and out of focus.

Oops, my statement was inaccurate and misleading.
1. It was not my first shot ever with DSLR. That was long ago with D70. If I say SLR, that goes all the way back to OM2 film body.
2. Shot I shared was a recent one. I just realized I keep taking similar stuff.
3. It appears first 'hydrant' shot on zeiss was CY 28. The one below.

Anyway, it is interesting to find what I keep going back to. One day, I graduate... or not.
Happy Thanksgiving to whoever is celebrating.

Charles,
These are very educational. Quite different from each other. Especially the difference in rendering between 58G and 50 Art is quite stunning. Is it possible that Art has deeper DOF, and the tansition is more rapid ? 35's bokeh, of course, is smaller, but that is no surprise. No judgement, just my impression.

going for the long shot.
Location: Hakodate, JP on top of Mt. Hakodate
gear: D850, 24-120/4, RRS TFC14/BH30
about 1000 people and myself crowded on the observation deck looking down on the city (popular spot at night). counted at least 8 different languages being spoke. i had barely enough room to set up to a usable point. got off 5 15-35 sec shots while protecting the setup from being accosted.
