Handsome drake, isn't he? I guess he'll find a pretty "wife" and then they'll have ducklings. Like the ones I saw at a pond yesterday. Using the zoom, I photographed some of those tiny hairy creatures:


So cute! Not even the Good Gremlins were that cute.



Oh dear. Cute overload.

Some random stuff from the past five days. Nothing special and it's only my camera phone but a couple of nice shots:

I'm glad you liked the pics. I think cuteness and beauty may be anywhere. And if you have enough sensitivity, curiosity and a certain sense of aesthetics, you can capture nice moments. For instance, two days ago I saw a street cat, and I didn't mind spending a few minutes taking some photos of him, using the zoom:

Then I tried to get closer, but he ran away and I didn't see him anymore. I hope he's fine. According to an unwritten urban principle worldwide, the number of street cats is proportional to the number of lonely old ladies who feed them. In fact, I saw some food remains by there.

And yesterday I photographed this cute dog in a park:

My sister feeds a random stray cat that lives in their suburb. She's 29. It just walks around their house all day.

I love pics of kittens. I really wish I would've gotten some better shots of my cat when he was that age. They are so cool when they are about the size of your hand.

I was trying to do something similar to that but my camera is awful so I had to tip toe closer to them and I ended up stepping on a pebble that scared them off a bit so the pics that I do have aren't as good as I would have liked them to be.

It does, doesn't it? I think photographing fireworks is a real art form. It takes a lot of practice to get the timing right.
