In this assignment we were asked to take photos of animals to capture the animal's spirit. I took upwards of fifty photos of my cats, ended with about ten pretty good ones and this one, which I will be turning in to my teacher: I like to think this photo perfectly describes my cat Sterling; he's lazy and doesn't really care about whoever else wants his blanket. It's his. This photo was taken with the aperture at f5.6, the shutter speed at 1/60, and the ISO at 200. These are also five more of my good photos, though not as good as the one I will be turning in: All in all, I think I learned a lot with this photoshoot. Cats are very difficult to photograph, because they move around so much and do their own thing. They won't sit still for a picture and won't position themselves in spots that are ideal for photos. So, I learned quite a bit about taking candid photos of cats despite the obvious challenges.

I really like this picture, your cats eyes look very nice, I do not see anything wrong with it.

I like how you compensated for the cats movement and still captured still images, but I feel you maybe could've gotten your cat playing with a toy. I also feel like you could've maybe taken the pictures in a different setting ex. like out side.

I love your photo! Your cat's expression is hilarious. I like how the background is quite simple and not too distracting. My only suggestion would be to try experimenting with adding depth of field to the photo.
