I found some time today to see what I missed and there are so many wonderful pieces in my inbox that I can assure you: when I have time I'll do many big features!

So, long story short, some time ago I started to miss having many penpals to write letters with. Now I have 3 and we don't talk very often as we study or live too far away from each other for the letters to reach the destination soon enough.

When I take photos usually I don't have much difficulties finding the best ISO speed to make the photo's colours nice and vivid. But this and last time when I visited a cat show it was terrible.
I started with ISO 100 because I remember how frustrated I was last time over all that grain. The colours were kind of cute and delicate but totally unrealistic and too light.
When I moved away from the windows and the daylight I used ISO 200-400 but most of the time the photos were turning out dark and dull.

Well, I was supposed to write about the Cat Show which I visited some time ago. You had and will have in the next few days (when I'll upload the rest of them) the chance to see my photos from there. However I also have some thoughts and memories which I'd like to share with you. I already know that at least one person is interested in it so why not ^^

The show I went to was an international one but I didn't really see any difference. It wasn't any bigger in the number of cats than the one I remember from my childhood. It lasted all the weekend, both days from about 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. On both days there wa ]]> http://panna-cotta.deviantart.com/journal/Cats-Paws-Feature-338933927 http://panna-cotta.deviantart.com/journal/Cats-Paws-Feature-338933927 Wed, 21 Nov 2012 08:21:05 PST Cats' Paws Feature nonadult journals/personal panna-cotta http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/p/a/panna-cotta.jpg?4 Copyright 2012-2013 ~panna-cotta I decided to do a feature of something I really enjoy, so here you are!

- it can't focus when I'm trying to take a photo of a cat which is galloping towards me as it's just too close xD
