Kira

After I was finished taking pictures of the hamsters, Kira hopped in the chair as if she was expecting to get her picture taken to.  Of course I obliged.  Kira is so pretty!  I love her mane.  Hahaha!

 

First Signs of Spring

 These crocuses are always the first flowers in my yard to bloom each year.  Their bright colors excite my heart for the coming spring.

My beloved spoke and said to me,

    “Arise, my darling,

    my beautiful one, come with me.

 See! The winter is past;

    the rains are over and gone.

 Flowers appear on the earth;

    the season of singing has come,

the cooing of doves

    is heard in our land.

 The fig tree forms its early fruit;

    the blossoming vines spread their fragrance.

Arise, come, my darling;

    my beautiful one, come with me.”

-Song of Solomon 2:10-13

Love

The sun and unnaturally warm weather for February made me get the camera out and take some pictures around my house.  I love my philodendron brandi with it's heart-shaped leaves and glistening splatters of silver.  Kira looked so cozy on the couch that I had to include her.  💕

Sunbathers

 Kira and Arien love sunbathing.  I love when I catch them sharing the same sunbeam.  😊  Aren't they so cute?!  😍

Kira and Arien

I have a lot I should be doing today, but I'm getting easily distracted.  Thankfully most of my distractions are including things that are at least on my to do list, just much lower down.  One of the things I finally did was update my cameras' firmware.  They were on very old versions.  The top picture was my quick test shot to make sure the firmware didn't break the cameras.  Haha!

 

Rainy Day Fun

Rainy days mean spending extra time home with Kira and Arien.  I appreciate that they are willing to let me take their pictures.  Kira likes to follow me around though which makes it difficult as she gets way too close for focus.  Arien tends to sit still, but glares at me.  Haha!  

I decided to test out the ISO on my camera and see how grainy it gets in low light.  I'm pretty happy with these!  I love my camera.  😊

Flashing the Cats

 It's been a while since I've taken any pictures of my pretty cats.  I decided to play around with using flash since I rarely use it.  The cats didn't really appreciate the flashing, but they tolerated it for me.  Aren't they cute??!!
