So my parents got me a digital camera for my birthday. Technology is something of a trial for me, but so far it's working, and this is the first successful picture I took.

Hth: Hey, I took a picture!
Mary: .... Yes?
Hth: What?
Mary: I thought there was going to be more. Like, what's the picture of, or some kind of story involved.
Hth: It's of the cats. The important part is, I took a picture!
Mary: Oh. In the history of photography, that's not exactly unprecedented.
Hth: IT IS FOR ME!

Anyway, these are the cats! They were sleepy, and I couldn't coax them into doing anything very cute for me. As you can see, I couldn't even coax Louise to look at me. But up top there is Seishirou (fondly known as Dude and/or the Boy), who at least cared enough to wonder briefly why I was calling his name. Also, in the background you can see our seahorse vase (Mary and I collect seahorse paraphinalia, a factoid that those of you who knew me as Betty Plotnick back in popslash fandom will probably appreciate more), and on the floor are videotape boxes of Oz and DVD cases for s3 Atlantis. Just so you know what's been happening with my tv lately, as well. *g*

Very pretty cats! but the best part is that your photo is in focus! I have no problem to press the button on my digital camera, but for some reason the autozoom slmost always makes some insignificant thing in the background sharp, rather than the pet I intend to capture.

Thanks! I set it to "pets and children," which is supposed to capture small things moving quickly...and then later I realized I really should've used a setting for low light, since with my cats, moving quickly is hardly ever an issue! Right there in the picture, that's about how quickly they usually move *g*
