Don't tempt me - I do not need another camera, I do not need another camera, I do not need another camera

The boys don't use their bed but it looks pretty cool in my room and I throw their toys in it to keep my bedroom nice and tidy so no, it's not for sale!

Haha I thought you'd bought yourself a newer camera from the title till i realised the timeline

Lovely boys.

Ps, fancy selling me the whiskas catbed?

Thought I was going crazy there for a minute - didn't remember posting this... just looked at the first post and this was from Jan 08 when the boys were mere whippersnappers

though, I know I'm biased but they are such special boys

Helen these are gorgeous pics. The boys are truly ~~beautiful~~ handsome

I wish my camera was as good as this. I get some pretty good ones of Lexy's bum, but I can't really post those

No no no keep 'em coming Helen!! Well instead a special R&L gallery section should be created in this forum

I also tried a similar thing I tried to cellotape one of the dangling toys sticking out from a bookshelf, I used a big tape made for packing so I thought it was set but my own incredible bulk ripped it off in 5 seconds and ran about the flat dragging it all over the place so so much for the idea... however I am with Gill I wouldn't try that anywhere near a sofa...

I am surprised that your sofa survives

Tiggy's Mum · « **Reply #19 on:** January 16, 2008, 22:37:00 PM »

Right, last ones tonight *I promise / *I'm afraid *delete as necessary

The boys love 'da mouse' and would play with it 24/7 if they had there way so I wedge the stick (which is snapped in half thanks to the ~~incredible hulk~~ Riley) down the gap between the cushion and the arm of the sofa so they can play without me having to move a muscle

A lovely one of Lucas

I know he has an awfully hard life but don't feel too sorry for him Gwen, here he is a few minutes ago....

Not forgetting Mr LuLu who has discovered the delights of their tunnel for the first time in ages...

Gwen · « **Reply #13 on:** January 16, 2008, 15:39:26 PM »

Rameses is always here for you he says

I really oughta get my butt in gear for a riley catnapping session

Oh you'd be more than welcome to him

He's ALWAYS in/on something he shouldn't be, whether it be trapping himself in the crevice behind the drawers at 4am, knocking shampoo bottles into the bath, shinning up wooden doorframes - the list really is endless. They really are chalk and cheese when it comes to naughtiness as LuLu is such a good boy, the worst he's ever done is get on the ironing board. One thing they have in common is that they are both super affectionate, the second I wake up they both rush up to my head end and start purring their little heads of while I cuddle them

I really couldn't have asked for two better boys

Nice! Great pics as always. I'm always impressed by how your boys seem to pose for pics. Mine specialise in that turning their head at the last moment thing!

I know!!!!

I am impressed with your boys just as well, Oliver is worse than Jaffa and Mosi, 80% of my efforts end up like this...

puddypaws · « **Reply #9 on:** January 16, 2008, 10:38:29 AM »

Really great pics Helen - and those furbabes oooooooooooh I want.

Great pics, the boys are just gorgeous as always

Digi SLRs are excellent, if you can work out all the settings! J is fine, as long as he doens't take anything off automatic

It can get expensive though, think of all the other lenses you can now buy, macro for nice close-ups etc

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #6 on:** January 16, 2008, 01:41:01 AM »

I would love one of these but must even think about it.........sigh

I have always been envious of your other pictures cos I just cant take nice clear close ups, probably my hands shake too much

Lovely cats too

hannah (weeny) · « **Reply #5 on:** January 15, 2008, 21:47:23 PM »

they are stunning!!

the pictures are quite good too

but youre other camera was always so good i thought, what ever it was, you always took lovely clear pics. but yes - SLR's are better

dolcetta46 · « **Reply #4 on:** January 15, 2008, 21:36:58 PM »

Oooooh I am jealous Helen!! Our "real" camera broke earlier last year and we are currently stuck with a cheapy snapshotter but as soon as we recover ourselves from the expenditure we had to go through with the total makeover of our flat, we are definitely getting a serious camera... I can't wait!!

The diffrence really shows, those crisp details are awesome!! I am sure you are having a blast and such gorgeous, fun subject matters would surely help, eh?? Keep them coming we never get enough of seeing your beautiful boys!!

p.s. I am glad to see Riley finally being forgiven!!

Such luscious cats!

As you may or may not have noticed I'm partial to taking the odd pic

I borrowed my sisters' Digital SLR over Xmas and fell in love with it, I've been saving up to get a second hand laptop but instead have bought myself a super duper Digital SLR camera

It arrived today as did the boys' new toys that I got from the US (we have such rubbish toys over here

). So here's my first efforts, the subject - my beautiful boys with their new toys

Lukey gracing their Xmas pressie with his presence (just as I was thinking of selling it on ebay due to them ignoring it!)

Lukey with (my) favourite toy a 'Kitty Kopter' which is made by the 'da bird' people, it's basically a 'da bird' that's mounted on a puffy ball. You throw it and it flies off superfast like a paper aeroplane, this is popular with the boys too!

Riley with his catnip yarn ball...

Don't look at my face Mum

Riley, having been knocked unconscious by the powerful catnip (see all the specs in his beautiful clean fur

)
