Indian summer.
First time I take those 3 little kittens outside.
8 weeks old.

Thank you :)
Not sure what you mean by sharpness..
I have seen you comment on others regarding this but I do not understand it..
I think all I did on that picture was crop it and add a little saturation... using GIMP cause that is all I have now..

The only thing I see that he could mean is that the focal depth is too deep, which would mean that you should use a bigger blender.
I however do not agree.
Awesome pictures anyway, these kittens are soooo cute and they look really majestic.
2nd and 3d looks like they already rule the world. 1 Looks as if it's up to something :)
Really detailed pictures, but is that your mirror picture in the eyes of 4?

not talking about focal depth. im talking about sharpness. too much sharpening causes pixelation on the fur. and the too much sharpness comes from camera settings, point and shoots usually(if not allways) have much sharpening effect by default and when you sharpen much like this on camra and resize the pic to small size that sharpness is too much for that size. sharpening should allways be done after the pic is resized, so when the cmera does it for the full size image its too sharp usually and you can see pixelation on small size. its not way too much on this pic, but i can see pixelation on the fur and it doesent look as good as it would look with correct amount of sharpness. im not sure how gimp works with resizing, but the program you use for resizing pics effects the amount of pixelation in sharp images.

I'm sorry, I just still not understand.. :(
I don't think I have such settings on my camera, it is very basic....
And i didn't resize the picture myself, I just put it on Flickr using the full size, and I posted the link for the medium size.. not sure how to explain it better..
Can that sharpness thing be edited after?
Like, would you be able to change it using my picture to show me what you mean?
I'm visual, I learn better when I see stuff....
Thanks in advance :)

It was very difficult to play with settings, as when the kittens were always moving around from sunny area to shades and vice versa..... :(
This was driving me totally crazy, and some of my nicest shots were ruined being overexposed cause I didn't take the time to change settings... :(
I also should have concentrated on one kitten at the time, instead of trying to get the best shot going from one to the other...
And yes, I just notice you see me in the eye of the kitten :o
