Day 62
She’s turned into a love in her old age.
And really taken to the camera.
That funny little thing in Mom’s hand that makes strange clicking sounds needs to be investigated.
Ah, Lana….which one of us is grayer?
It’s All A Blur
He stood by the fence, watching me approach. I was just getting the camera out when he threw his head back and yawned.
Oh my goodness, what bigggggg teeth you have.
All the better to eat you hay with, m’dear.
Disclaimer: Saki has nice teeth, really. But not when he’s moving faster than the shutter speed. Then he looks like Bugs Bunny after a bar fight.
When he was finished yawning he came back down to my level for a greeting.
And held still long enough for a nose to nose moment.
Pony My Heart
Today Saki is the star.
He was standing inside the barn and I was standing outside, maybe 10 inches below. Add to that a head toss and an outstretched arm holding the camera way up high and the end result is an interesting perspective.
And then he humored me with a nose pose.
But this one, the one that appeared on Facebook today, is my favorite. Something soft, trusting. Years and years of knowing one another. This is the pony that holds my heart.
L-L-L-L-Lannnna
Today it’s all about Lana. Because she’s the one who’s mostly in my face when it comes to the camera.
See what I mean?
I hold her attention long enough to grab a photo-op.
And then she’s outta there.
Jasmine
It was sunny this morning. And cold.
There was heavy frost on the meadow, beyond the trees.
Jasmine stood in the light, her breath steaming around her.
Warming up the day with a hug.
Gray Morning
She’s a beautiful old girl.
Focusing on her every day, literally focusing with a camera and then manipulating a so-so photograph just enough to make it arty
has given me a new appreciation for the both of us.
