What lens are you using, the fall off is beautiful!

Thanks! It’s a Samyang 85mm f/1.4 on my Fujifilm X-H2. I’ve been really happy with the photos it takes even if I have to practically stand in another room. I’ve got a Brightinstar 35mm f/0.95 on the way that I am REALLY excited for.

These really do look amazing, and massive respect for you being somehow able to manually focus on a cat!

Holy moly you lucked out. My guy Thorin looks like this in >90% of the pictures I take of him. Little crap head won’t be still for more than 1/8000 of a second.

I love him but I wish I could get an actually good picture of him more often.

I love your kitty, so much energy.

I could DDOS Lemmy with all the bad photos of my cats I’ve got. I specifically got the 512gb version of my phone specifically because I knew it would fill up with cat photos.

Keep at it and eventually you will get some winners.

I did finally manage to get one stunner last year. My wife told me it could be his LinkedIn picture.

But these couple I got back in 2016 are the ones that never fail to make me laugh.

He’s a funny dude. An orange through and through.

That smirk! What charisma.

He’s handsome and he knows it.
