Psycho Kitty

IMG_0761

I was taking a shower, when I suddenly felt something grabbing my leg through the shower curtain. I had thoughts of Alfred Hitchcock’s movie “Psycho” when a psycho kitty suddenly burst into the shower.

But the bigger question is, why did I have a camera in the shower? Well, let me tell you, there are certain things you always need to have in the shower or bath with you — you never know when you will have to shoot — https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dvSZ_HQmZgQ!

Hootin’Nanny

Contrary to the what the photos may suggest, a Hootin’Nanny is not what you get when you cross an owl with a goat. A Hootin’Nanny, properly spelled “Hootenanny”, is Scottish for a celebration and we’re going to a hootenanny as part of the Corrales Harvest Festival — but there will be dancing, so this is one of those rare times the cameras will stay home in the safe as they pose quite a danger to other people when I’m dancing.

Two o’clock in the morning and not a skunk, porcupine or raccoon in sight, so after turning in the irrigation water, I turned my camera toward the night sky. Photo stats — Camera: Fujifilm X-Pro 1. Support: hand held. Film speed: ISO 3200. Lens and aperture: 35mm at ƒ/1.4. Exposure: 1/4 second.

Wild, Wild Cat

DSCF1707

Spunk was so wild this morning that he spilled Laurie’s coffee and broke her favorite mug. He didn’t just spill the coffee, either, but managed to make in explode all over the bathroom. You can see that even after we cleaned up the mess he was unrepentant, and still had a wild look in his eyes.
