Probably motion blur though I think also I pre-focused on his face which
is where his tail was after he jumped. The first and the fourth shots
were 1/250 - ISO 1600. The second and third shots were ISO 800. They are
not in the order taken - shots 2 and 3 were taken spontaneously the
first time he jumped. I lead him back behind the brush pile to try
again, and the second try was shot #3. I was too slow - he suddenly
crouched and jumped and by the time I pressed the shutter he was
probably standing a foot in front of me. Shot #1 was the third try.

Looks like a fun exercise. :-) How fast was your shutter? Looks like
motion blur to me, especially in the second shot.

Cat Content Caution:

My cat and I were hanging in the yard on this first truly warm day so far
this year and decided to try for some action shots. Didn't quite pull it off
though - not sure if I just blew it, or the K3 and DA 17-70 kept back
focusing, or if the cat was too fast. He gave me three tries though and then
light was too dim... Definitely something I will be working on in the days
ahead...
This is sorta like sports photography - any advice about how to get the eyes
sharp and the tailed blurred (instead of the other way around) would be
appreciated.
