You must work for B&H with your copyright logo over the shots . . . I really can't see them for the © over the animal.

At least we can see Zinc's face in #2. I gotta agree with RJ, can't really see and appreciate Zinc because of the copyright.

Ok Ok .. move the copyright logo to corner :P

Mom told us that if we don't have anything nice to say . . . to just be still. But the shots are fine, if not better than fine, now being able to see same. The conflict between sharing ones work and the fear of said work being lifted is always an interesting compromise.

Here are our Chins - Cumulus and Nimbus. I can't imagine how you got yours to hold still long enough to get those pictures... Ours are three month old sisters that we've had for about a month and a half now. Oh, and if you wonder about the names, don't they look like the makings of a little storm cloud?:lol:
