a better view of the supermatic, looks like a very nice machine. Made in Switzerland

Now for some cat pictures. I attempted to take a few portraits without flash, which is the only way I know of to make the cats' eyes appear normal. Here are a few of the better results. No kittens today, they move just too quickly for the slower shutter speeds these pics require.
