I took advantage of a lull in the rain to get some closeup shots around our front door and on our balcony. Also one of our turtle under her sun lamp.
For the photographers, these were shot with a Nikon D300 DSLR and my all-manual, some 35-year-old 55mm/3.5 Micro Nikkor.

Well that was a lovely nap.
Choco the cat kept following me around and “talking” to me this morning after my wife went off to her CPA study group.
I couldn’t figure out what Choco wanted. Food? Fed. Water? Watered. Cuddle? Rebuffed. Play? Ignored.
The cold, grey, rainy day should have been a clue.
At one point I went back upstairs to the bedroom and within seconds heard a bouncy jingle following me. She jumped up on the bed, and began talking again.
Oh, could it be…? I lay down, made an inverted V with my legs, covered up with a fuzzy blanket, and she slipped into the tent, curled up, and was snoring within a minute.
[Jeez those humans take long enough to understand!]
The snooze lasted about half an hour before she overheated, but that’s the highlight of my day so far 🙂 .
