My D40X finally arrived and I have to say I love this camera already.

Here is a shot of the cat I took this morning. More to come soon, I am off out now to find more subjects.

C&C welcome.

Thanks,

How do you get the border blurred like that? I have PS btw.

Good picture too. Not as nice as my cats though.

Make a selection of most of the image, leaving about 10-15 pixels unselected (around each edge). Right click, invert selection, blur, gaussian blur. Create a new layer and add the white/black single pixel border on top.

Enjoy your new camera TrUz
