First photo with new camera....
I've been away from photography for a lot of years but just bought a Nikon N80 and am getting used to the new camera. I used to shoot a FE-2 but one of my kids had it stolen and I have just gotten around to replacing it.
First roll pic so be gentle.

1. Never shoot until you see the
green of their eyes!

2. Nice cat shot!
May I suggest you resize it, though? It's humongous--like Catzilla on my screen! LOL

3. "Catzilla" cracked me up....
I thought about just saying that it was my artistic style/in your face type of Statement. LOL, then just resized it.

5. Biggest.cat.ever.
Nice shot -- cool that you didn't get any red eye shooting straight into the pupils like this.

6. I lucked out I guess. Used the cameras built in flash.
I'm still trying to get used to the camera. At least it's convenient that a few of the controls are in the same place as the FE-2. I went out into the woods sunday on my ski's and took a roll of shots. I'm anxious to get the film back because I experimented a lot with the exposures.
Had a blast in the snow.
