Still, we won't say it too often because we don't want you to get a swelled head! Tell your Mama, that our Mama understands completely about dark lighting! It gets very dark here in Vancouver during the winter months because of all the rain (we have had unusually sunny days this winter but the rain started again yesterday and it looks as though it will be sticking!). Many of our indoor pics taken during the winter months are dark and then when the sun does shine, our Mama wants to take pics outdoors where the pups get to go, so the cats get overlooked!!

I struggled with lighting and focus in my early blog days, but even now when I look at those photos, all I see is the love I have for my kids and the love they have for me in return.

Like RIDICULOUSLY dark. If...It's dark here too. Like RIDICULOUSLY dark. If you look at our older pictures (though some I'm replaced with newer edited ones), you'll see just how dreadful things were before. For lighting ... on action shots or in shots where I can't have the camera set on something for stability, I have to use a flash otherwise it's blurry. For the shots like these ... I modify the color temperature (for some reason in the darker shots, the temp tips toward yellow/brown ... I actually use an auto-correct because I suck at the mechanics) and then lighten, lighten, lighten. The main difference between our older pictures and the newer ones are editing. Some pictures you can't edit as light as you need them ... they just look horrid. Bear used to be a complete stinker about pictures. He'd run away or turn his back to me. But after MONTHS of trying to bribe him with treats (only to get 400 pictures ... and no usable shots) and taking endless pictures ... he doesn't react anymore. Of course, he's a cat ... sometimes he's not in the mood PERIOD. But occasionally, he'll mug. I NEVER thought I would see this day! NEVER! Here's another thing I can tell you ... sometimes the photographer just gets lucky. For every picture on here, there are HUNDREDS of other takes and angles. I just take pictures until Bear (or I) get(s) bored. Mudpie is so gorgeous ... I'm just in awe. I'd hope she'd get used to the camera eventually too :)Momma Kat and Her Bear Cathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04254210236142173792noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2604919255879575307.post-74598093268123686382017-01-15T17:22:40.405-06:002017-01-15T17:22:40.405-06:00Good grief you are handsome, Bear!
