Jack - Revisited

It was time to check up on Jack The Cat today as his owner, and my best friend, Warren, are out of town. I'm glad I decided to go this morning as it turned out Jack was out of food. I overfilled his bowl & cleaned the water bowl left in the kitchen sink. Then it was time for an up-close visit, petting Jack, who was eager for physical contact. After he calmed down I got down on the living room floor with my D800 & Tokina 11-16mm F/2.8 lens. I've reported before how much I love this lens. It was ideal for the extremely close focusing done on this shot. I set the camera ISO to 6400 and F-stop for 5.6. That gave me enough depth of field to draw attention to his face, while softening the background.

You obviously know your photography Bob. I put my compact panasonic on "automatic intelligence" and let it do the technical stuff.
