Excellent.......very nice details!! Hadn't realised, till we talked, that you could adapt the 50mm lens with the extension tubes.

Gorgeous cat!! I love taking animal photos too.

For me in this shot, the whites are too bright (overexposed), there's a lot of shadow on one side of her face so you lose the details. If you can, morning/evening light is softer, wait till she turns slightly to get more light on the dark side (more even light) If you can a faster shutter speed helps. You've done very well with the focus on her eye, but at SS of 1/10 even her breathing is going to make the focus iffy.

Have you got some more shots of her? I'd love to see them.

Strong composition in this shot. Really like the gritty feel.

To me this image is about the impact/destruction man wreaks on the delicate ecological balance. Powerful work!!

Now that's what I really do call a precious moment. Very special photo which, with the way his head fits into the palm of your hand, shows just how tiny and vulnerable he is. Wonderful.

Stunning colours. I really like the way the long exposure has completely altered what I'm looking at, it's ended up looking a bit like a giant dartboard. Lovely shot!!
