Tradition in an age of marvels

The tradition being that one's first pictures with a new camera are of one's cat; the marvel is that this is a handheld 1/11 second exposure of a stealth cat on a white thing and next to a shiny thing.  At ISO 3200, because it was that seriously dim.

I am so very glad I'm not trying to do this with wet chemistry.

Stealth cat, best cat.

You need to try this out on our stealth dog who so far has defied attempts to produce a decent photo of her.

I would certainly be willing to give it a try!

It's a lot harder with a subject who won't hold still for more than fractional seconds, though. :)
