If you have ever taken photos of animals, you know that 1% of the photos if not less usually come out as you want. I am learning techniques, but my best option so far, is just to take LOTS and LOTS of pictures. You can always delete ‘em I say.
Here was a series I tried to get as it happened, but alas, I did not have my camera settings quite right, and no time to fix em (that pretty much sums up 98% of my photography right now as I slowly learn some sort of ‘skillz’).
This group of shots made me laugh even if they didn’t come out well, so I decided to post them as it happened, as it looked, in all its unfocused glory. You can click on photos for the larger version.
Here we are in a normal ‘help mum work’ mode (love Bayou’s big paw…note to self, need more photos of it…..and whats with Asia trying to look all growed up again?)

Shortly after the above pic was taken, and I am trying to get back to work, someone did not want someone laying in someway……or something.
This would be the ‘stare down’

“Imma gonna bop you!!” (nice flinch)
“Imma gonna bop you BACK”

(notice Asia’s head disappears here, Bayou was shoving it out of the frame quite nicely)
At this point, Bayou jumps out of the bed, but as would be the norm, Asia will continue to try and push buttons….

Ahhh….gotta luv ‘em!!

You guys may be bickering, but your are gold-ious!
Great shots! You did well just to get the camera turned on in time for the action!
Action shots are always fun! We always take lots and lots and lots of photos, but only a few turn out okay.
