A pet’s perspective on longing

I often wonder what the pets in my life are thinking.  I'm lucky to have furry friends around to keep me pondering about life and posing for my photography practice.  3 of our own - 1 dog and 2 cats.  Rarely, if ever, are they pictured all 3 together.

Tabletop bird-watching

Give me space on the chair, not on the table like you...you damn, cuddly, adorable, loveable, tabletop-hogging, bird-watching sisters. I wanna look out the window, too!  What do you see?  It sure looks interesting to me. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FRci0Kbk33o Oh, yes, it's the birds, of course.  With the arrival of wind-blowing spring, they are busy building their nests. … Continue reading Tabletop bird-watching
