If there is sun shining in my room, Callie will find it and lay in it. She loves the warmth, especially in the winter time. I love when she lays in the sun because it gives me a chance to capture some great shots of her.
Jingle jingle jingle. Thats the sound I use to hear when Callie was prowling around my room. Now, there is no sound except the sound of her little feet running across the floor. Let me tell you, she can sound like an elephant charging when she is hyper. Callie is an expert on taking her collar off. We went through about three already. I find them laying on the ground and broken. I guess she still considers herself a wild kitten. Nothing can hold this fierce cat back. Meow!
The seasons are changing and the cool air is coming. I may not be ready for the change but you cant stop nature. Its okay because cold weather means hoodies and I love hoodies! I cant say I dont like Fall. I love Fall. One of my favorite seasons for taking photos. Especially, with all the different colors the scenery looks extra beautiful! I took Princess and Lady for a nice long walk today in the park. They loved it and so did I. There was a nice breeze and the air was cool which makes for perfect walking weather. Its sad to say goodbye to Summer but luckily Fall makes Winter worth it.
Remember the pear tree photos I took awhile back? Well, I decided to make a selective color photo of one of my favorite pear shots. I think it came out nice. What do you think?
This is probably my favorite photo that I took yesterday of the pear tree. The composition is awesome and it has a nice soft feel to it. Kind of like it shows the fragile side of nature. Anyways, I am spending most of my day fooling around with photos. So, I decided to convert my pear photo to black and white to see how it looks. It came out nicely. Even though I do prefer the color one I do like the black and white one also. What do you think?
Princess got lots of attention today from me but its not the kind she likes very much. First, she got groomed because her hair was coming back and with the heat she was just way too hot. Shaved down her body and legs but just trimmed up her face and tail. After getting groomed she got a bath. She was not happy about that. Just look at the photo above. Doesnt she look annoyed? Maybe more like pissed off, but she is such a loyal girl that she just stands there waiting for the torture to be done with.
All sprawled out on the couch after the bath. She looks like a bullet.
Look it! Its my little fuzzy wuzzy.
Either she is trying to be invisible so I dont torture her more or she is embarrassed with her haircut.
She isnt in a smiling mood but she is still kissable!
Princess is tired of photos but I just couldnt resist. Look at her cute little legs!
Thats Princess’ eyelash and eyeball. She has beautiful long eyelashes and big emotional eyes.
Did you enjoy those? I did! I havent taken photos of my girl in awhile. I never take enough photos of her, Lady or Oliver. As you look at Princess, cant you see that she is an angel in dog form? A human in a dog body? Well, she is my angel. Many may say she is just a dog but she is much more than that. She is my best friend, my sidekick, my hero, my angel, my life and everything else. You may own a hundred dogs in your lifetime but there is usually one that touches your heart the most. Ive never understood how people could favor one dog over the others. Until, the Princess walked into my life. I mean you will never see or hear me talk about how she is my favorite and make it sound like I dont love the other dogs. I adore my other dogs. They are all special to me but Princess is just extra special.
Like my anna banana shirt? I spent my Tuesday going through all my clothes because it was junk night. Amazingly with all the stuff I have there is nothing I am ready to get rid of. Most of the stuff I have is keep or just throw away in a garbage can. I had fun seeing the different shirts I have. I have a thing for shirts with designs and sayings on them. Just another artsy way to express yourself. I did keep most of my clothes though but I need to go shopping for a few more. Im not a shopaholic. I dont go shopping for clothes every week. More like every season or two. So, I need to go get some fresh clothes soon. Heres another one of my favorite shirts.
Yesterday marked the hundredth year of celebration of fourth of July in my town. That is why we had the parade yesterday instead of the actual day. I accomplished my assignment and I am very proud of myself. I set my alarm to wake up, got up and ready, grabbed my camera and walked over to where the parade would be. It was in the high ninety’s and the sun was shining high but it was worth it. Even though it was boiling out people still had great spirit for the holiday. I took over three hundred photos of the parade and kept around a hundred of them. Here are a few of them. Enjoy the parade!

Its been a long time since I had blonde streaks in my hair. They grew out and just was lazy to put them back in. But since graduation is Wednesday (yes Wednesday!!!), I decided to have my mom put some back in. They came out pretty nicely. I would look good with all blonde hair but I dont know if I want to be a full dumb blonde. At least with streaks it makes me just part dumb blonde. Hehe. Thats my excuse for my ditsy moments I have. Anyways, my hair is ready for graduation and so are my eyebrows. Yes, I got my eyebrows waxed today. They needed some cleaning up. Twenty bucks for eyebrow waxing. What a world! Well, its worth it since its for graduation.
A few days ago I had to finish a photography project for my photo class at school. The project was to photograph like a professional photographer and I chose William Wegman. You must know his work. He is the guy who photographs his weimeraners in clothes and make them have human characteristics. His dogs have been in books, galleries and on television.
I chose Princess as my model since she is most cooperative and has the most patience. Besides trying to lay down all the time she was a very good girl. Here are a few photos of her that are some of my favorite. I took so many and the rest will be on my flickr. To me she is better than the weimeraners but that is also because she is my Princess.
