Halloween Photo Shoot With Darby

No costume for Darby this year.  Instead, I decided to do a photo shoot featuring a pumpkin grown in my friend Ruth's garden, and Skelly, the skeleton haunting my door courtesy of my nieces. 

Things began well, nice morning shadows and compliant dog model…

Then, Bones, the neighbor's cat, appeared.  See her on the path, lower right.  She was not there two seconds ago.   She does this all the time, materializes where the action is…

Darby got distracted…

And Bones got brazen.  Actually, she's always brazen…

It started out civil…

Then turned rough…

And that was the end of the photo shoot.  Nature photography is hard.

Happy Halloween!
