Another Cat Video Added to Youtube

But it's not JUST ANOTHER CAT VIDEO! But it is. I tried thinking of something clever to say, but really, it's just a video (watch in HD!) of two cats working together to seek food. I don't proclaim them to be cute or smart or the best cats in the world. Which leads me to another thing - we were all cute once in our lives. Every dang baby or toddler is cute. Then all of a sudden, they grow up, and they're no longer cute. Isn't that wrong? Why can't we all be like babies and cats and just be cute forever?

Sunday Night Flash Mob

Sunday night and I felt inspired to finally pick up my camera. It's been in my camera bag since I got back from New York City. I had so much to say here, but it begins to not make any sense when I start to type. These images were taken today, it's me messing around with my external flash. I had a lot of fun, but blinded them all. My mom, brother, and both cats had no choice. Either way, it feels so good to just shoot (the images weren't heavily photoshopped at all, no added vignettes, just some cropping and contrast!). And here's the song that's currently playing as I type this! Beat Connection - Silver Screen.

Yes, I take photos of cats because they are my friends

I've always been against taking photographs of dogs/cats/snakes/pets, until the tables turned. Until I realized these little darlings are like my human friends, but more generous about having their photo taken. They do as humans do: poop, eat, sneeze, cuddle, meow. But they don't shy away from the camera. When they do, I have the luxury of picking them up and positioning them. If only I was strong enough and my human friends kind enough to let me pick them up and place them in the best light. As I was saying, my (brother's) cat poses and yet can still look natural. When you put them in front of the camera, they don't give you that stink eye- take it now so i can delete it for you - look. They look at the camera, shake it off, and continue napping, and in this case, on the suitcase in the corner of our hallway.
