Oh Kimi they are beautiful.. I love your composition in the first two and the gorgeous colours to and how nice the mushroom is. That is just a lovely photograph.. Yes Sammy is perfect and you took a perfect photograph.. I love his eyes..The last one is gorgeous too, lovely framing. Your work is beautiful Kimi.. Thank you for sharing it.

Kimi, these are so good. Crystal clear, razor sharp and excellent backgrounds. All of them are very calming and soothing, I'd say you "got away" very well.

Hi Kimi - great leaf photos ... were you sitting on the path when you took that photo of Sammy? ... and I must add - he's got some long nails ...

i was lying on my tummy Hayward, and yes he does have long nails, the vet says they're still an ok length though.. we've had some trouble hurting him in the past when we've clipped his nails so we try to just let him naturally file them down by running around.
