April 10, 2011-A cat on a hot tin roof. Okay it’s not really a tin roof and it was not really hot, but there is a cat on there. This is Allison’s new spot to hang out on, all the other cats were sitting crouched up on the ground, except a new cat was in a tree. Allison seems to have found the perfect spot. It was rather damp and colder today; the rains came with some hail and wild weather. I was hoping to get some lightening shots, but the rain was coming inside the house when I opened the door and power-wheelchairs are lightening magnets soo…gotta figure out a safer way to go about doing that. (Day 100:365 @sharkbayte)<br /> <br /> thank you for all the comments on my flower shot yesterday, much appreciated!

  • April 9, 2011-this is one of my neighbor's plants she planted a few weeks ago. I liked these tiny flowers and their colors. (Day 99:365 @sharkbayte)
  • April 8, 2011-This large Eastern Carpenter bee and company have set up house on the ramp, right outside my door. Whenever I come out there they hover on either side of me and then start to chase each other and sometimes me off the ramp. I have been trying to capture them but the minute I focus on them they fly off. Not today! (Day 98:365 @sharkbayte)
  • April 7, 2011-Playful pups. Pancho and Lucy were outside playing when I rolled by. Both came running when they spotted me. Whining and crying for attention. I couldn’t get closer because of a ditch but they calmed down as I talked to them. (Day 97:365 @sharkbayte)
  • April 6, 2011-the sky changed fast tonight. but luckily we didn't get another storm. (Day 96:365 @sharkbayte)
  • April 5, 2011-Another plant I am putting in the yard to spruce up the area a bit. (Day 95:365 @sharkbayte)<br /> <br /> thanks for all the wonderful comments on my photos the past few days.
  • April 4, 2011-Yay!! The boys are happy! I wanted to see how Gena and Cheburashka were doing being on their own. Much to my delight they are getting along fabulously. You can even see the happiness in Cheburashka’s eyes. As we visited they also told me that they wanted to move in here so they can be closer to the family and that they still want to go to the zoo every day and volunteer their time. Such good guys they are! I was more than thrilled that way we would all be together and that is something big for Gena as he was alone for so long. So I am happy to report they are doing great! (Day 94:365 @sharkbayte)
  • April 3, 2011-The clouds were amazing yesterday. I love it when they appear so close, almost like you can reach out and touch them. It also was extremely windy as well so I kept getting debris on my lens. (93:365 @sharkbayte)
  • April 2, 2011-Ren was feeling a bit neglected, and he wanted me to take his picture and use it for the dailies. “He said he had something neat to show everyone. He said his best friend besides Treeson, is his wagon; he can use it to haul anything and he never leaves the house without his backpack. His backpack is very special, it contains his secrets and because it holds his secrets he won't show me or anyone what is inside. Oh and he forgot to add Panda as his best friend too. And his name means “Human” in Chinese.”-Ren. Fascinating…I need another cup of coffee, I can see it’s going to be a long day once the other guys see Ren was on the dailies…(92:365 @sharkbayte)
  • April 1, 2011-Eating for two - This doe appears pregnant; if she actually is pregnant, May or June she should be arriving with a little one. Her son from 2010 is still in the group, she chased him away from the apple a few minutes after this. Day 91:365 @sharkbayte
  • March 31, 2011- Ronsdorfer Beauty, or creeping phlox. I am going to plant these out front for a ground covering around a stone wall. It was raining out so I took these inside and I placed these in a shot glass as they are so tiny. (90:365 @sharkbayte)<br /> <br /> thanks for all the comments on my wisteria picture yesterday.
  • March 30, 2011-Wisteria hanging from the trees. I wanted to get closer but there was no way I could with the ditches surrounding the area it is growing in. There was a branch running across the center of this, I tried to remove it without showing the edits. Something I really need to learn to do. (89:365 @sharkbayte)<br /> <br /> thanks for all the comments on my characters. I'll be shooting more of them, shortly, they requested some alone time do live their life without the camera in their face.

    Well done. The yellow flowers are a nice balance to the kitty.

    Oh, yes...shortly after purchasing the camera, I went out on a limb and snagged a cheap 70-300mm, then one evening I noticed lightning off to the north of us and decided this might be a good time to try to capture some lightning...well, I neglected to put the strap around my neck and proceeded to set the tripod up when I heard something scraping on the shingles and then begin to tumble...I lunged for the strap with the tripod and missed, all I could was lay there sprawled out and watch as the camera disappeared over the edge of the roof and hear it hit the ground and tumble a second later...slowly, I made my way down off the roof trying to figure out what I was going to tell my wife...miraculously, the camera received nary a scratch, the lens was still somewhat functional...thus, 'The Klutzy Photographer'...you can check out the shots I got back in '09, should really rework those and get rid of the noise in them, haven't really had any opportunities like that since...
