JOLENE 


This little Pittie/Catahoula mix was found with her 7 siblings wandering the streets of Texas. 
I met her at a Queen City Pitties adoption event when she was 5 months old and immediately fell in love with those little spots and scared, sad ears! 

GNOCCHI


While taking Jolene for a morning walk to the park, I heard a cat crying. There was a jet-black mom and her 3 kittens near a box, and inside was 2 more cats! 
While waiting for the Niagara SPCA to open, one of the cats hid under my car, clearly wanting to stay.
Needless to say, they are now spoiled and happy in their furever home.

JOEY RAMONE


Joey is not found in nature. She is a Parrot Cichlid, a hybrid product of strange breeding practices which some AQ enthusiasts believe should not be bred. I happen to agree for many reasons, but she has been my adorable friend for 16 years!
She jumps completely out of the water to be hand fed, comes to the glass to talk, and rearranges the tank every time I clean it.

A 4 degree evening was perfect for indoor photography!
I've attended the Gardens After Dark event twice before (you will see those photos as you scroll through) but this time with my 70-200mm Art Lens for a different perspective – close ups only.



Every shot was hand held in very dark conditions, all manual settings including focus.
Outside shots were C O L D !
















I love the abstract look from being so close!

The angle is my favorite part of this.









































And that's me :) mirror shot.
