Doug, thank you for your comments. But, as I'm sure you understand, when the kitty sleeps, it's hard to move it to a more neutral background. Or when they give you that "look to die for", you have to shoot right then and there. All of these shots were simply "shots of opportunity". But I totally understand what you're saying. Thanks for your input. Your words of wisdom are *much* appreciated. Jerry
