Post-Thanksgiving glow

Twix and I retreat to my desk corner of the bedroom. I love it there because to my immediate left is a window and straight ahead is another. He loves to sit with me while I work on photo editing on my computer. I have so many to post!. 

Black and White

I'm frustrated because I wrote a long post about memories surrounding my dad developing his black and white photos, and then my own past of doing the same. I'm out of steam now, so ill just share a couple and tell you more is on its way!

No Hunting Allowed

NINE POINT Buck standing at the corner of our property, munching fallen apples!, a photo by Arty_Kat on Flickr.

This was taken through my window screen and across our deep backyard to under our a craggy old apple tree (see red dot). There was a NINE POINT Buck standing at the corner of our property, munching fallen apples! He was magnificent! I got some shots on m7 Canon as that are far better and I'll be sharing here later. This was taken with my iPhone 4S.

My daughter @crazedsage thought she saw our neighbor's cat, Jimmie Johnson, get hit by a car but he was just fine. Whew!. We have been taking near-daily walks together - well, she does the walking and I ride in my motorized wheelchair- and enjoy the beauty all around us here in the mountains. It is a regular occurance for me to see deer, and often it is more than one in more than one place along the walk.

One of my favorite photos of my Bear

One of my favorite photos of my Bear, a photo by Arty_Kat on Flickr.

He's holding our Shih Tzu, Meesie ( formerly known as Mimi), who he rescued from the animal shelter last year.

This was a candid photo, which are my favorite kind of people shots.

Beauty in Sepia

Beauty in Sepia, a photo by Arty_Kat on Flickr.

A beautiful friend who believes she has an ugly smile I was taking photos of her four children and caught her smiling. When I showed this to her, she couldn't deny that she does, indeed, have a wonderful smile.
