Title: Why is it so hard to get a photo????
Post by: maryas on May 14, 2010, 23:05:25 PM

Ben trying for weeks now to get a decent photo for the Purrs Cat Show and Bonnie will just not co-operate.  I take my camera everywhere - even when I go for a pee  :rofl:

LAST DAY FOR PHOTOS IS MONDAY 17TH MAY - see details in link below for those of you who don't know about it.

Lots of fun, great pics to make us smile and cats get some money too.  :hug: :hug:

Good luck everyone.

Too much information!  :Crazy:

I know what you mean though.  Jaffa was posing beautifully this morning on a pile of books so I grabbed the camera, turned it on, pointed it at Jaffa just in time for him to jump down so all I got was a blurry ginger blob.

Pepsi has been a right poser, but my iPhone's camera is pretty terrible so I have to take about 50 photos of the same pose while she sits there going 'are we done yet, can I go now, how long do you want to take?' and then maybe 1 will look ok when it's been uploaded.

I still haven't been able to upload them to the computer yet  :-[ :smack: :sneakin: :slap:

OMG it's getting closer to the deadline.

I've sent in 6 old ones of Bonnie so far and hoping to get some new ones in the last 27 hours  :rofl:

I have come to the conclusion it is the photographer to blame in my case.  I have wonderful subjects, although they do tend to move at the crucial moment, but my photographic technique is somewhat lacking.
