Yet More Photos of Us

I know this comes as a complete shock to you, but Mom has taken Yet More Photos of us. Of course, we are both wildly photogenic, so you can't really blame Mom.  I mean, it would almost be a crime to NOT photograph us....



See what I mean?!?

Mom spent some time this weekend switching between her 'big' lens (the 70-200mm) and her wide angle lens (17-50mm), for very different effects.

Here I am at 70mm with the big lens...


And then here I am at 17mm!

My nose is really not this big!

Mom was on a 'big snooter' kick (the 17mm part of the lens distorts our snooters so they look abnormally large), so she took a lot of photos with the wide angle lens.


*derp*

"Why yes, I can model, if you provide the snacks...."
And then she decided that while these photos were fun, she needed to bring out her portable strobe to get 'real' photos (since Daisy's black furs tend to hide her eyeballs in shadows). I allowed Daisy to model while I observed from a distance!


This is Mom's favorite of the lot, since Daisy is actually looking at her!

Shifty-eyed puppy!
Of course, once Mom stopped all the posing silliness, I was game to chase some tennis balls. (And Daisy was all interested in chasing me... *sigh*)



Oy! This wee demon doggie is relentless!

However, I was able to show Daisy that I've Still Got It.

Don't even think about it, Little Black Dog!

I win!
But then there are times when I just let Daisy do her thing because, well, she's crazy!



Oh, and did I mention that Daisy is crazy?!?

Dorkadoodle!

Yeah, um. I don't even know what to say about this, as I think the photo says everything!
And while Daisy is crazy, I continue to remain serene!


Have a great week!

In Which Mom Takes Many Photos of Us

Mom has been having way too much fun with her new lens.  However, it does mean that we get a lot of snacks as payment for posing, so I guess it's not all bad!

But, I did have to sit next to the Crazy Bandersnatch, so I think I should get hazard pay - like 1.5 times the regular amount of turkey hotdogs!





At least I also got some alone time!



Mom, I'm about to bark at Daisy. Just thought I'd warn you!



And while Daisy is mostly crazy, Mom can sometimes get her to sit for a few seconds at a time!




Mom says this photo reminds her of her own belligerent teenage days...

Lookit those teeth!


Putting the 'dork' in Dorkadoodle!
Mom thought it would be fun to get some photos of Daisy by the few remaining daffodils (Mom is not exactly a Master Gardener... more like she has a Toxic Thumb...)
She looks like a Muppet. Which Muppet, you ask? ANIMAL!



But not to worry - we didn't spend all of our time posing.  There was plenty of tennis ball time!



Hi Mom. Are you going to throw that ball or what?!?

CRAZY dog!



We had some storms over the weekend, and Daisy was having a grand time with all the sticks and branches that got knocked down!



Yep, she roaches with sticks!

Post-roach "bed-head"!
Have a great week!

A Few Photos

Mom took the day off from work to have routine medical exams (something about condensing all the fun into one day - although I don't think she was serious about the 'fun' part) and in between bouts of medical excitement, Mom took photos of us.  She's demoing a new lens, and so we spent lots of time being supermodels (and eating snacks for our efforts!).

"She's still there, isn't she?!?"
 



We also gave Mom the opportunity to test out the lens on some more bouncy photographs.

Apparently leaping through the air is Daisy's superpower!



Daisy, by the way, is a total toy hog!

Or, Daisy "Two Tennis Balls" Dranow

She also totally works the whole puppy eyes thing!
Have a great week!
