They appear so close by that I can almost touch them. Great pics!

One of them almost popped out of the screen and ate me :)
Great images, I suppose the D500 and 300PF combo was used?

Lady and Gentlemen, I thank you for your comments. Jakov is right, D500+TC-14E III+300 PF was the combo used.

I am a cat lover, so this is easy- I like all of them, but I especially like the last one, a really great capture with super detail and sharpness.

Thank you Ron. This shot was taken from the window of my car. I was passing by an empty lot and 2 cats were eating something.
This is one of them.
