I have used Goose Angel on a series of materials I call the "Rejoice Series." This puddle duck elevates himself to maximum beauty in the afternoon sun, and appears to be rejoicing. He and his friends the Goose Pair were such willing subjects on the afternoon I took their picks that it seemed that they were posing. LOL
Goose Pair Series, THE SLEEPING GEESE Geese partner for life, and this pair are an obvious life pairing. He watches over her to the point that several times while taking the pictures, he opened just one eye to watch me. Faithful to the end, some of his actions look almost of human emotion.
These ducks look comedic with their blue backs and bright orange bills as if stage lighting is shining on them.

I have a collection of Cat pictures. Their propensity for the warmth of the sun, and their willingness to sit still, coupled with their reflective highly focused eyes, makes them good subjects. Besides, cat people and children love cats.
This is one of a Collection, some of which contain our curious kitten. For me, taking these pictures which were by accident when our kitten would not stay out of my dogwood pictures, I felt surely they would make others smile in much the same way as they do for me.
Look closely, and you can see the second little baby in the background. Shot before the sun set so low, that it not only lightened the hiding place in the pine tree nest, but cast too much light for good pics. But these hilarious babies, yawned, n turned their heads in funny ways. But my favorite one of the series is where this sleepy baby did like any baby would as naptime nears, closed one eye sank with his chin on the nest, and fought to stay awake. The path to human connection is short
Persy the Squirrel is named so becasue of their persistance. There is a fearlessness in them that makes them good subjects for pictures. I spent hours as a child holding a scrap of bread in my hand hoping one would come down and grab it to eat. And it finally happened. A fond memory. I want my pictures to evoke memories. Persy is one of my "WILD ONES."
Sadie is a good example of a well loved pet who is also difficult to take pictures of. Sadie is Black, and when taking pics of her compadres, what is good light for them is seldom good for her. The light floor, and scarf, brougth enough life o the shot to make her sweet face shine.
Sweet neck scarves only enhance these lovely faces.
