This week’s photo challenge is: Close.

I was born in the land of Banjo Paterson, gum trees, and weather extremes. I am a freelance photographer. I love to make images that make people happy. To capture forever a precious moment. I am also a freelance writer/editor. I live in the Bay of Plenty, New Zealand, but still like to claim my Australian heritage. I graduated with a Bachelor of Communications in 2008. I am writing my first novel. I love to write poetry, short stories, and also write for the web. And there is nothing that is on a par with a sunny summer's day spent at Waihi Beach.

    1. Thanks…I’ll tell my boy you approve. Thanks. It took me a while before I got it where I wanted it, tweaking all the time. You’ll get there.

  9. Hi,
    A great photo of the cats eye. They are so unusual I think cats eyes than a lot of animals, I suppose that is why they are used a lot in Jewelery. 🙂

          2. I have so many photos of him…although he gives me THE look when I take his photo Charlie is actually very patient with me doing it. I guess he figures if he lets me do that then I will let him do what he is doing now. Laying on my chest with his head on my shoulder sleeping…reminds me of when my babies were little.

          3. Yes Holly didn’t like to pose. I would get the 1 eye peeking or the dash when she heard the camera. She hated the flash. I have so many pics of the cat too. My husband said I have more of her than him 😉

          4. Oh that’s funny. I had to laugh the other day…I follow Anne Rice on fb and she has this new cat ‘Prince Oberon’. Her son posted something questioning the fact that she had posted more photos of her cat than she ever had of him. My Jack sounds like Holly…she does not like the camera and gives me the one eye peeking too !!! But Charlie is so: “Oh, must we ? Oh, all right then. Just make sure to photoshop out any blemishes will you !!!!”

    1. Oh yes it is he of the intelligent eye, intolerant mind and lightening fast strike reflexes. But it is also he of the gravelly puur and the soft warm cheek that seek out mine.

  40. My daughter named our cat ‘Marvin’. We call him Starvin’ Marvin because he’s always crying for more food. I’m still thinking about close–too many options on this one. I do love that macro setting…
