More (Stolen) Lilacs & Leo...

Posted on 8:00 PM by jimmy

This morning I went back to the park for more lilacs (see the previous post for details of my weekend lilac heist)... There were still lots of blossoms at their very peak, but many were already fading, so I knew this was probably my last chance to get any this year. Back at home I gathered some "springy" props; my nest, Daddy's typewriter, some antique postcards, lace...the fabric I used as a backdrop actually has lilacs and nests, but unfortunately, very little of it shows...
I guess you can have too much of a good thing...;)

Leo checks out the set-up...look at how the lilacs reflect on his face...aren't light and color amazing?


Photobucket



"No, Tallulah...Mom says you can't be still and that this is MY photo shoot!"


Photobucket



Hmmm....What's this??


Photobucket



Hey ~ Is that catnip down in Grandpa's typewriter?? Who put that there??....


Photobucket





Hey, ya'll!....There is catnip in there....No, really!


Photobucket



I can't get it, though...shoot...it's almost like someone put it there just to get me to stay up here in the middle of all this stuff...


Photobucket



Well, that's enough of that...I'm leaving!!


Photobucket



I'm outta here...

Cyrus takes advantage of the sunshine (and a clear space to lie down) after the photo set-up is taken down...and you know, there were all these catnip leaves under the typewriter! (Look at that face!)


Happy Wednesday, all!
