Memorial weekend plushies

This is what I see when I read in bed at night. There's a cat under that fur. I swear. 

Enjoy the long weekend!!

Okay, not friday, but still plushy!

...in which I attempt to juggle a feather on a stick and a camera with speedlight attached.

Fun with flash

Maddie helps while I play with fill flash exposures. Kittehs enjoy being helpful!! (and she's grateful that I'm bouncing the flash and not flashy-thinging her).

It's friday, and that means KITTIES

Sorry, I've been busy this week. But here's your friday plushy fix!

I don't know why, but all maine coons seem to do the "crossing legs" thing. 

Ripley being ridiculously cute. As usual. 

Tanks 4 washing dis slipcover chair thing - now iz perfect napping spot. 

All photos taken with my new Olympus Pen 'walking around' camera. (in high resolution)

Really blogger?

The new interface is a pain in the butt and the scheduling function doesn't seem to work very well. Hence, the double-post of Friday Ripley. Oh well!!

Friday Ripley

I be napping...

oh, wait, U bringz me feathers on a stick? iz mah favorite!

A big thanks to Kid Ranger who sent a whole tube full of those things when they were behbehs. They still love them. Happy friday.

Friday Maddie!!

Where dat sparkly dot goes? WHERE?

U be bothering me while I chase dot. 

It's really hard to get Maddie's attention when she's on the deck- she gets distracted by the reflection off my lens. Silly cat!!

Time flies!!

I wuz lost and in jail....

...and now I am big gurl in mah forever home. 

She really was a funny cute kitten.

Aurora

Sigh.

The aurora borealis photographed over Finland in January.

I wish I live where I could photograph auroras. Also via National Geographic.

Friday Ripley

I iz napping. Goez awai pleeze. 

Oh wait, dere be feathers on a stick??

Ripley still loves those feathers on a stick (as does  Maddie.) A big thank you to (I think) Kid Ranger, who sent a whole bunch of them to the gurlz when they where little. It was the plushy gift that STILL keeps on giving.

No waxes here

Maddie was more interested in chasing the reflection the lens made on the deck than helping me create a plushy-pic. Scamp!
