Photo Shoot of a different kind....

I was asked to take some pictures of our friends new cat. Below is Oliver Porter and he was very cooperative.
I am not very knowledgeable about cats but I thought they didn't like water. Oliver loves the water. Unfortunately, I had an equipment malfunction. My compact flash stopped working and I was only able to take 7 pictures. I wish I could have got some better photos of Oliver in the water.

So my friends and family, if you don't like having your picture taken I'll take some of your pets. I am in negotiations now for an idea I have for a dog photo. In fact they are neighbors of the Porters.

Hi Gale, Kay again, Bonnie's sister. We have an English Mastiff that I would LOVE to have a great picture of!

Maybe I need to start an animal photography business. Seems like I have more interest in that. Kay, it has been great hearing from you. I went out to your old house this spring looking for pussy willows. Remember the time we picked pussy willows? The kids must have been 3 & 4. No luck.

Olive is so cute - must look like his mother! Ha! Again, thanks for taking the pictures! Bonnie

Bonnie just led me to your son and daughter's pictures! I cannot believe how time flies. They are beautiful "children!" I'm thinking you will have something going with animal photography. My puppy is 200 pounds so I believe you would have to have an extra-wide lense! Sorry there were no pussywillows - not like the old times!

I know you hate our cats, but we cannot get good pictures of them. I will bring them to your house, so you can take your time on the shoot! Oliver is cute! How old is he?

I can't believe Gale doesn't like your cats - you should bring them to Gouverneur for a picture shoot!
Oliver is 1 1/2 - male - heading to the doctors on Monday! He also loves the treadmill when I am on it - shuts it off, speeds it up, inclines, and gets on my shoulder for a ride!

How come my mom shows pictures of humans and she only has 2-3 comments, you throw a picture of a cat up she has 1,000 hits a day?

bone, EVERY cat deserves 1,000 hits a day (and a few kicks as well).
