"are we done yet?"

Every once in a while i get carried away on a picture kick and

(obviously, as you can see) yesterday was no exception.

I must say...you'd be very surprised at how difficult it is to

photograph pets... screaming at them to "stay" usually does work,

but doesn't make for a very good picture because they're so scared

they either shiver so excessively that the picture is blurry,

or they look tail-less as it's between their legs. (tears in their

eyes isn't very becoming, either) And might I add that the

phrase "the more the merrier" does NOT apply to all situations

of life. Ahh! (Oh, I'm JUST KIDDING...don't worry, I was not even

CLOSE to being that mean, i PROMISE. :)) Cinder was the

most well-behaved (she's a girl, need I say more? ;)), and sat

quite politely as her hyper brothers boinged all around trying

to get the little girly house dog to play! Despite their efforts,

she just sat there looking at me with big innocent eyes,

hardly moving a muscle. Nevertheless.......by the end of our little

photo session, even Cinder was ready to go inside. :)
