I made some terrible cat art today with some lovely Chinese film (china hasn't mastered the art of using paper that actually blocks light to seal the film) and a friends catsynpe.

We went to a great dog café yesterday in Stockholm (Coffee&Friends). Indie could not believe her eyes when her lunch appeared. Our food was good too!

Spaz is just too photogenic to let a dirty lens completely ruin a shot.

What a BEARtiful face I have found in this place that is circling all round the sun.


Spoilered for sadness:
She was hit by a car a few days ago. This is the last photo I took of her.

Ebay's probably your best bet.

This is literally film lomography.com thinks is terrible, it is not forgiving if you don't expose and develop it just right, and the negs are thing and super curly.

I live in a large city in an area with a lot of "double income/no kids" people who dote on their pets, there's an off-leash dog park very close to my home and a fair few pet related businesses around the place. I've looked into it and there doesn't appear to be many photographers attempting to do any business so I'm starting one as a side to my wedding/portrait stuff.

Here are shots from my first session. Anyone want to give me some harsh critiquing?

Brought our new kitten home a few days ago, her name was Sophie, but since we already have a Sophie, we named her Lilly. Holy crap kitten photography is a tough solo job..

It doesn't matter what you call your cat. They don't respond to names and yet they're still adorable for some reason.

They even know which name is theirs.

Technically, they don't know their names. It's really just an auditory cue that they've been conditioned to respond to. :colbert:

Back in the early 70s my dad and a friend of his had a business doing glamor shots of fancy felines. Also, I know in Kentucky there's a decent market for horse portraits. There's definitely a market for it.

Got my first DLSR (after the cat photo contest, of course - Rebel T3i, nothing compared to what a lot of you seem to have but a huge improvement for me) and have been really enjoying it compared to my 7-year-old Powershot S3 IS. Favorite feature: my house doesn't have very many windows in the main living area so it tends to be kinda dark, and the highest ISO setting the old camera had was 800.

My pets make pretty good practice.
