is it just me, or can you actually see how soft his fur is in this picture?? (especially viewed large...)
I'm also happy to have captured his cute little eyelashes
:)
My third pair of the City Mouse sweatpants from 4/2011, this time in brown french terry from Sewzanne's and orange and brown striped ribbing from the Ottobre etsy shop. These are lighter in weight than the navy blue pair but still super soft and cozy.
My So Soft Lofty. I love all the So Soft Ponies. She is not in perfect condition but I think she is really, really pretty anyway.

These are some soft blocks that I made for my etsy shop. They are fun to make and just adorable. Even my 5 year old likes them.
Ancient Egyptians would have marveled at the luxury of these soft make-up brushes, made of the fur from strange animals and bound with shiny bands of silver...
Soft clay-like rocks with curved surfaces and gentle lines. Lots of clay, unexpected, at Death Valley. All part of the process of continent-building.
“Feeling at peace, however fragilely, made it easy to slip into the visionary end of the dark-sight. The rose shadows said that they loved the sun, but that they also loved the dark, where their roots grew through the lightless mystery of the earth. The roses said: You do not have to choose. ”

One of the first things I work on with a new puppy is Bite Inhibition.
This is NOT the same as "No Bite", which teaches a dog they should NEVER have teeth on skin.
Rather, Bite Inhibition is teaching them to use Soft Mouths whenever their teeth/mouths contact skin.
The theory goes that you just can't count on contact never happening and it's safer to have a dog that knows what skin feels like in their mouths and that they shouldn't clamp down on it.
Henry loves tug and his teeth glance my hand several times per play session. Bite Inhibition means that when he senses the wooly tug toy he can grabs hard and when he touches soft skin he keeps his mouth open.
And boy can he pull. If I'm on my knees in jeans he can pull me across the floor.
True, as Golden Retrievers they come by their soft mouths naturally, but they still need to learn the use those soft mouths on skin!
The flip side is that as Retrievers they are very, very mouthy pretty much for life, as fas as I can tell.

Ok, so I'm going to call this soft focus. Almost everything is out of focus, even though I tried to get *something* in focus :) I do however, love the bokeh given.... it just looks neat. I like how there is the feel of the background slowly rotating left then right, almost a spherical bokeh... I hope I'm not the only one who sees it that way :)
So I didn't take this very recently, but I just edited today and I really like how it turned out. Good news--I'm on summer break!! I was in the middle of nowhere yesterday and took a lot of shots, but they will only upload to my dads computer. So unfortunately I won't be able to edit and post those until tonight, but I will be posting a lot more now that I have an abundance of free time.
