Just one of those

Days,
when you take a thousand pictures,
okay, maybe not a thousand!
Just seemed like that many! 
And not a single shot was any good!
I waited for natural light to reflect off the walls,
I tried artificial light, and no light!
So I gave up, figuring the stars and planets aren't lined
up for me today!
Or I just need a cocktail!
(Then all the photos would look really good!)
I finished, Bea,
 in her Bonnet!

for details.

Bee Well!

I seem to go through the same thing when I do a "photo shoot" for an item. I think Bea just didn't feel like cooperating! She is just darling!

Oh, Bea is so cute, Lisa! I love her expression. She will cooperate tomorrow. Maybe she just didn't feel like having her picture taken. :)) Now go have that cocktail!! xoxo Pam

She is so sweet! I really dislike taking pictures, they never come out right no matter how many I take. Wishing you a better day tomorrow.

I here ya Lisa! Can't for the life of me figure out a way to get a good photo of something under glass.

Call me when the wine is uncorked! I'll be right over!

Some days I can't get a photo that isn't blurry, or too dark. It's rare that I get a good photo, actually. But, Bea is a cutie!
