This photo was part of Toulouse’s Birthday post but I wanted to spotlight it on its own because I really like it. He looks alrt and happy and ready to have fun. He also has his TabCat Tracker on.
I am thankful I was able to grab the pose of a fast moving cat who paused – for a moment, then dashed away.
Not only did I capture him alert and watching, but the picture is also quite sharp. Taking sharp photos is something I am getting better at and I know you might struggle with it when you take your own cat photos. We can do this!
I do not use manual focus when shooting cat photos. Autofocus is best, and it works much better than you might think. As aspiring cat photographers you and I spend time learning a camera’s settings, and capabilities.

Auto-Focus – there is an in-depth article about focus at Photography Life if you want to explore the technical side, or to ensure you understand how it works. [Bonus: Minimal/no pop-ups]
