Family Portrait Failures

You would think that having fewer kittens would make it easier to take a group portrait.

That's not the case at all with these three.

Nope. Not so.

With this litter, I've had as many failures as attempts. So today, I bring you...

    What beautiful kitties! I think the family portraits are wonderful - they look like a fun bunch of kittens.

    Oh but the "failures" are even almost better than the "successes"! So so so cute. I think my favorite is the one where all 3 are looking in completely different directions and Norma is mid-gigunda yawn.

    Gorgeous "failures" of sweet felines.

    Lovely kitties even if they lack an attention span

    I'm just impressed that you got them to sit still like that in that the first place... what's your secret? Do you tape their feet to the floor? Whenever I try to take kitty pictures, they're always whipping their heads around or getting up and moving right when I take the picture, causing some insane amounts of blur.

    The "failures" are charming. I always marvelled at your ability to get the "perfect" group shots. Now I know you must be as thankful for digital cameras as I am - we can shoot and delete at will. Imagine the film expense of days gone by! Am I aging myself?!
