Mirror Mirror On The Wall.....

Today's assignment was to use a mirror as part of a composition in a photograph today. Show yourself in the image if you'd like!

Over the past few weeks, I've been living, eating, breathing and, pretty soon, will be sleeping in the "beige cage" as I've been pulling some ridiculous 11, 12 and sometimes even 14 hour work days. I've lost touch with the outside world. I'm exhausted, and don't have the time when I get home to pull out the DSLR and shoot wonderful pictures. Thank darwin I always have my point and shoot with me at all times. I was able to capture a shot of my little "spy mirror" I've got hooked up on the top corner of my computer at work. As you can see, my desk was in total disarray at the time this shot was taken.....

Kitty

June 1, 2010

This is Sara (although I call her "Kitty"). Don't let her small size fool you for what she lacks in stature, she makes up for in personality. She's independant (this ain't no lap cat), addicted to Whiskas kitty treats, likes shoving her head into the shoes you've had on all day and is extremely camera-shy. It's so hard to get a decent shot of her as she tends to run off just as the camera is all set ready to go. In fact, this shot was a fluke.....I spent close to an hour taking shots of her only to have her turn at the last minute and show off her bum to the camera. She does everything to avoid the camera. Finally, after running around the living room chair, I told her I gave up. That's it. No more photos. Just as I was about to put the camera away, she poked her head around the corner. CLICK! Clearly, she was caught off guard. The look of surprise she has on her face in this photo turned quickly into a look of disgust. Poor kitty! Foiled again!
