Pets (Leica X1)

A 'moment in time' captured spontaneously indoors and shows that the Leica X1 is quite capable of recording transient expressions of two pets. I had merely seconds to see this picture and shoot it before both animals moved on to fresh activities.

Purists may look critically at the technical qualities of what is, essentially, a 'grab' shot. However the best animal pictures are the natural ones where you sometimes have to accept small compromises. You cannot stage manage shots like this portrait of two pets. You 'shoot it', or 'lose it'!
