Note to self: Don't shoot in ISO 800 in bright sunlight...
So this weekend I was trying to get some good shots of the pets for the photo contest and a local pet calender that I can enter photos for. I was experimenting with Sv (sensitivity mode) on my camera in the evening and I forgot to change it back to my normal P mode (it's like a combo Av and Sv mode; very useful). In the morning, there were these wonderful birds hanging out in our mountain ash tree in the front yard. They were beautiful, so I grabbed the camera and started snapping. I got some good shots too! But then, after the birds had gone, I checked them out. Oh the noise! It's horrible- ISO 800 is usually pretty good in low light pictures, but the noise in photos taken in bright sunlight is, well, not so good. I'm so sad :( I also took a few of the kitties that are pretty good and I may just need to run them through a better noise removal program to make them work well. Anyway, let me know what you think of the kitty and dog pictures, I want to start amassing a collection so I can chose a good one of each pet to enter into the photo calender contest.

I particularly like the last 2 of cats!!
Looking forward to seeing the bird shots once you remove the noise :)
Really like the kitty pictures! Cat eyes are so pretty.
I really like the 5th (last) cat shot. :)
I like the 4th, I think with the two in their scratching post so cute!
The last one of the bird is so unusual yet eye catching. Not too bad for Oops! photos.
Looks like you have a small zoo at your place :) Glad to hear that Kira is doing better.
