Maybe posing, maybe just curious

This line of creatures along the gable of a Chinese Imperial building inside the Forbidden City, Beijing, China, denotes a building of minor importance among the family apartments. The man riding a chicken and the dragon-like mythological creature at the ends are not counted for precedence, only the animals in the middle, here 3, are counted and the count varies from 0 to 10 animals. Only the Imperial Palace has 10.
A practical need for these is as part of a lightning strike prevention system. Modern society has added a metal bar along the roof crests to augment this function.

Who didn't like playing ball with their favorite pet?

This hound dog was waiting his turn to train for search and rescue.

Playing around with Enlight and I created a double image of my dog niece, Phoebe.

This little guy wanted to see what I was using to take photos of him!

This very cheeky squirrel had shooed the birds away and proceeded to eat THEIR food! I snapped a couple of shots then he/she decided to leave. Camera-shy, I guess.

Stopped to watch some deer in the sage. Noticed the horses, as they started towards me. The black certainly was in a hurry to get some petting.

Do I need any words for this type of expression? I think not

My dog-niece, Lillyanne is so chill. My niece put a bow on Lilly's head. Of course, I had to capture the moment!

Taken at a local junior rodeo...this little guy is going to be some cowboy. Nothing scares him. Taken with a Nikon D7000 and a Tamron 28-300 lens

I liked this one of Kitters too. She'd look at the camera for about .5 seconds, just long enough to get her face in and right back out of focus since I was shooting a very shallow DOF. Luckily this one and the one I posted a while ago came out. I'm here visiting for a while, I'll keep trying.

My niece's cat, Kitters.

I happened to be in right place when this little jumping spider decided he was gonna eat and I wasn't gonna stop him! This fly landed and the spider pounced from about 5 inches away, ka pow the fly is down for the count. But....the spider is right in the middle of my linoleum floor. Haha, he was so small he couldn't pull the fly, four legs going like hell backwards and he's going nowhere. So then he stops, I could tell he was thinking about option B, like taking me out so he could eat in peace. lol. As I moved around the spider and fly, a circle, he was eating as fast as he could and turning with me, always keeping his head toward me. Little guy had the heart of superman and he WAS NOT leaving his food behind. I finally left and let him finish his prize.

Caught a lone duck swimming.

My favorite picture that I have ever captured. We were feeding giraffes on our honeymoon, but this guy was more interested in the camera lens than his food! This capture was all luck!

The humans believe that they can contain me within the confines of this prison...while they do feed me well, and I am provided with water and ample things to entertain myself with, I vow not to be placated by their attempts at removing me from the outside world. My day will come...and vengeance shall be sweet. - Diary of a Cat

It's rare in life to find that completely unconditional and unreserved love that makes life so much sweeter...I have found that the kind of love given by an animal is special in that respect. This is my "Winston"; sweet, kind, beautiful, and ever at my feet, no matter where I go.

Moonlight was rescued by us in 2013 and she's had many issues but now, her biggest one is the fact I'm always trying to take her picture! She was very obliging this day and I took advantage of it.

I am too cool

An old photo of a horse at my uncles house. I love the aspect of the eye and then seeing me taking the photo of his eyeball.

These two lovable pups were swimming out into the lake to retrieve toys thrown by their owners. It was hot and humid that day. The lake wasn't too deep and the dogs were having fun!

He's a big baby!
