Bob's Cat
Camera: Optio A40 Photo Location: South Dakota 
Posted By: Bob Harris, 03-06-2014, 08:28 PM

actually it is a bobcat but I just had to make the pun. I took this photo with the Pentax Optio A40 in shutter priority mode and after viewing it appeared to me that cat looked like it was photo shopped into the picture. I guess it could be the non perfect focus or softness of the image because of taking the photo in a hurry, but I liked the appearance of the cat and thought I would get your opinion.

Dana, it was a longer shot and I had to crop for the closeup, so maybe that is why it looks a bit odd. thanks for taking a look.

I did think your photoshop skills were much better than that, so my take is it is an excellent shot under difficult conditions.

Oh I love that explanation Trev, I'm going to remember and use that on future photos that don't turn out right. Funny thing is I have never photoshopped anything, don't even know how to do it.

I think these weight about 35 pounds or so EM, they can handle anything and more in their weight class I bet.

Is he de-clawed? Do you feed him Friskies? Does he use a litter box? Only after hearing the answers will I believe he is Bob's cat. Weirdly good shot.

Does looked photoshopped, funny. Reminds me of work. They have several orange/yellow striped cats, 5 cats in all, and 3 dogs. Do you keep it in a pen made of Bob Wire?

I think the title may be much better than the photo Tess.
