You Capture--Comfort

Keli is hosting this week's You Capture again while Beth continues to cuddle baby Eli.


I loved this week's challenge, comfort.  I think mostly because most of what I shot this week falls into this category.


The leaves on the trees are feeling comfortable enough to start blooming. 


I did not edit this one at all and I just love the way it turned out.  I'm starting to play around with the manual settings on my camera.


Wayne was talking to me while I made dinner Monday night.  I asked him if he needed to put his foot up. He said "No I'm comfortable, Lola doesn't mind."


Wayne's comfortable sharing the chair with Toby.

But Lola would rather have it all to herself.  I love that she looks so small in this shot, when in fact she's not.

Toby seems to think he's a cat, he's constantly walking, running or laying on the back of the sofa.  I love this picture, he just looks so comfy.

Bob was comfortable hiding in this box until Toby found him. 


This one is great because as comfortable as Lola looks, Lucky (the cat) is equally uncomfortable with her being that close to him.

What's more comfortable than laundry fresh out of the dryer?
Toby: "Put the damn camera down and help me, Mama!"
Lola: "What's the big deal??"

The beams above the living room is the cats' favorite place to be because the dogs can't get to them.  It has startled more than one visitor. 

This one is probably my favorite.  Sure, they look comfortable but that's not the reason. But I find comfort in the fact that Lola isn't dragging Toby around by the collar while Lincoln's barking at the leaves blowing through the front yard.....all three of them are quiet.  This happens so rarely, you may remember what Lola was up to this weekend.  It doesn't even bother me that my sofa cushion is mysteriously flipped over so you see the zipper, ok, it bothers me a little.
I also love that Toby's looking at me like "Dude whatever you do, don't. wake. her. up." 


Without You Capture I probably wouldn't have taken all of these pictures this week and i just love them.  If you haven't checked it out yet, do it NOW.  If you've checked it out, but haven't participated, what the heck are you waiting for?
