ever seen those posed pix of cat show winners - how in the world did they get the cats to sit still for so long and get such great shots. maybe pedigreed cats are more photogenic

you're welcome shiloh...! I guess when it's a bit difficult taking photos of kittens as they are all so jumpy and active.. Trust me, when they grow older and fatter..they tend to be lazier and thats when u'll find it easier to snap some 'posing' shots.. hehehe...

How do I post photos on the forum? I can't upload images. I've reduced the size to less than 39KB but it doesn't show in the post. Can anyone help?

Now, there are two little balinese babies - CheChe (big sister) and TiTi (little brother). No surprise that they are related. They are 3+ months and really nice.

I've been reading the forum and it is full of great info on taking care of cats and kitties. Hope I can learn more from "cat-experts" on the forum.

Which brings me to the first question - How can I take picture of the kitties - they don't stop moving and everything I've tried comes out blurry. Also their eyes reflects and look red like zombie cats - scary. All suggestions and advice welcome.

Hi Shiloh, welcome to this forum...now, kitties r pretty active n it is hard to keep them still even for a sec. so i u want, take the pictures of them when they r eating or sleeping (or while doing their business....).

N now again, to solve the camera problem of urs..
To avoid shinny eyes.... Don't use ur flash while taking their pictures!!
To diminish red (zombie) eyes.... if u use a canggih camera, the camera shud hv a setting for anti-red eye. Red eyes is caused by reflection of the flash light from the one's eye. so, stop using flash if u can.... hope this helps...
