My first favorite DSLR Photograph

As stated in my first post I just recently got my new DSLR, Nikon D90, I had previously used a Nikon P500 coolpix. I haven't gotten very technical yet and am still trying to learn all the finer points and how to put them to good use. This so far has been my favorite photo that I have taken in the few weeks I've had it :


Yes it is the photo from my first post, and that is why it is there, not only is the the best photo I have of Fiddler but it is also the best photo I have taken so far. I feel I captured Fid's personality as a lazy care free cat, nailing the focus on his eyes which only furthers to capture his personality. I also love his pose and his colors, oh and it is the only photo I have managed to take where both his eyes are open. He has been the only subject I've been able to take decent pictures of since I lack a proper macro lens to capture the others since they are half his size, I hope to get a macro soon though.

Thank you for looking.
