Good Morning :)



Meet Sergent Fuzzy Boots. The only female out of a litter of three kittens. Every morning all three run around my legs until I leave for class, and are waiting for me in the living room when I get back, then follow me around until I re-fill the food bowl. They spend all day and night chasing us around, getting in the way, tearing things apart, hiding our socks and sleeping in random places. I figured something cute would help brighten up week 10.

Constructed Image: Painting the roses red



I was playing around with food for my constructed image, (carrot tulips, orange peel flowers), and when I started shooting the celery roses, I couldn't get the Alice in Wonderland song "Painting the Roses Red" out of my head. So I decided that's what I was going to do with them.

There's a video of them being painted, with the song playing in the background (not amazing videos but still neat), that I'm hoping to make ready for online viewing soon. Till then, I have the stills.

I was going to do three images of the other "flowers" but wasn't sure what I'd do with them to make them work as a series, I may simply do 5 of my favorite images of the two roses I painted.

For those wondering about how the song goes:
