Lighting.

My cat, Minni. The lighting in this photo is my favorite part.
This was taken as the sun was coming up and shining through my livingroom window.

Ned

I really couldn't help but post this even though I didn't take it. John took this photo and I'm so in love with it. This is my cat Ned doing what he does best...laying around. My favorite part of this photo (besides my little man, of course!) is the bokeh in the background one of my favorite parts about my new lens. I thought I'd incorporate a little bit of my personal life in this post :) Great job on the photo too by the way John!

What Life is Like Lately

Life continues to be all sorts of "blah" here in Northwestern Ontario.
The snow NEVER ends. I'm looking out my window right now and it's grey and there are no leaves on the trees.. I can't find my photography inspiration. I'm sure there are loads of things I could snap photos of but when you're feeling uninspired, I-Phone photos will have to do.

I'm going to be starting a new feature when the sun starts shining (and I'm feeling more ambitious) where I pick a theme for the week and then I snap photos... so one week could be "coffee" and the next week could be "grass", etc. Stay tuned for that!! Hopefully the sun comes out eventually.

On another note, the photos you see above consists my life lately.
I start everyday off eating some yummy breakfast. I usually eat a massive breakfast in the AM otherwise my whole day is thrown off. Cereal is just one item pictured. I've also been heading to the gym a lot lately and slowly getting back to where I was with running. I hurt my calves so I had to stop for a while but now I'm just taking it slow and I'm able to run 5k in 36 minutes which isn't so bad!

Until next time!

Soft Kitty Warm Kitty Little Ball of Fur

Just some photos I snapped of my kitty, Minni, today when she was actually being calm for once!

I was taking some photos of her because it's currently -40 outside right now (aka freezing!) so naturally I thought it'd be a better idea to stay inside.

These are actually taken with John's Dads DSLR camera.. let's just say I hate the one I'm currently using now :(. I love this camera so much which means I definitely need to make an investment on a good DSLR. Eep!

Our Kitty

Meet our kitty, Minni!

I took these photos of her last night which was incredibly difficult because the entire time all she did was squirm!! She's absolutely crazy!!!!

The last photo is hilarious because A) she looks weird B) I used a photoshop blur tool which makes it look really fake. Maybe if I was an expert at perfecting the blur tool, it wouldn't look so bad. I probably could've selected more accurately which sections I wanted to be blurred but I think from now on, I'll just stick to focusing the background out.
