Free, As In Kittens
I was doing some work at the Vet today, and as usual, I got asked if I wanted an animal (or three). The first time they asked me, I walked out of there with a Pomeranian! Since then, I guess I’ve been labeled because I get asked all of the time to rescue an animal from them.
These little kittens were found on a boat. Their mother was killed in an accident with the boat’s motor, and the owner of the boat found these little ones stowed away. They are still quite young, but are ready to be adopted. It would be nice if they could be kept together, but they will separate them. If you are looking for a new kitten and can make room in your home for even just one, they would be very grateful. If you’re in the Charleston area, you can call Veterinary Specialty Care at (843) 216-7554 if your are interested.
The photo of the kittens were taken with my iPhone using it’s new HDR feature. They were being very typical kittens, meaning that they would not sit still for a picture. I could have gone to the car and brought in the DSLR, but the moment would have been lost. A minute later they were all in that box napping! Even still, I think the iPhone does a terrific job of capturing moments.
Here is a shot of my other dog, Jackson, relaxing on the couch. He was a rescue dog that came from the pound. He’s such a good dog (although he took a long time to house break). I took this using a new flash bracket that I ordered for some beach portraits I’m going to be taking tomorrow. It let’s me move the flash off of the camera while still using the hot shoe, which for outdoor portraits is very important because I can get a very fast sync speed when shooting in TTL.
Don’t forget to check out the new store, I even added Canadian and UK services yesterday!
