Not that there is anything special or photogenic about this picture, but I just like it. Atari looks cute with her little whiskers and her dainty paws in a caring, malicious grasp.

Max is very affectionate. Here, Tulip bunny enjoys some TLC from Max Rabbit, who also enjoys grooming me.

I love how unambiguous the affection is between these two people in this picture.

Scavenge Challenge - Assignment for March is COMMUNICATION. This is a broad topic, and subjects could be as diverse as television, books, a Morse code key, fiber-optic transmission cables or any other means we use to communicate thoughts and ideas. That said, there are a couple of additional requirements for your end-of-month collage:

1) one or more colour images

2) one or more black-and-white images

3) one or more close-up/macro images

4) one or more high-contrast images (dark blacks, bright whites)

5) one or more shots post-processed in a "vintage" style

Please note that some images may fill more than one category, e.g., you could have a vintage high-contrast black-and-white close-up. I'm sure you can have fun with that!
