a portrait of Six....

This is Six, the orange menace. He's a young male.



Nikon D7200 at ISO 1000, 55-300 at 300mm, f/5.6, hand held at 1/20s. There is a lot of apparent sensor noise that I just couldn't quite get rid of.

3. thanks, CP....

He's part Maine coon so he's a big kitty. He's a sweet heart, but he plays way too rough, so we never roughhouse with him. Kathy and I both have scars to remind us not to tickle his belly. He's the only cat we currently have who worries me around strangers, especially children. He's not mean though-- just the opposite. He loves attention and petting. Just don't ever do it absentmindedly!

4. I'm afraid they look more blue in this light than usual....

Really, I think they're a bit greener than they appear in this photo.

5. I can understand that, my son has hazel eyes
