Shocked to be in my 83rd year. Lifelong blue voter, though I don't post or comment about politics, just cats, nature, photos, gardens, food. Buddhist, lapsed meditator, but still trying (often failing) to live the teachings of the Dhamma. Go Ducks!
He was a happy boy! It caught his attention, too, when I replayed the video on my phone.

I put it on his bed and he’s sleeping on top of it. I don’t know if it’s warmer or not but he looks happy.

Thanks! I’ve posted videos of him playing and being silly, but nothing like this where he’s happy and looking at the camera. Those eyes are hard to resist when he’s begging for something. 😹

Me too. It's wonderful.

I'm not sure I've ever seen him so happy before!

I'm so happy -- he rarely likes anything I bring home, but this is a winner, I think. Yes, the boy has a good motor when he wants to.

First biscuits I've ever seen from him! I think he's a happy camper.

I know! I just threw it down on the floor to see what he'd do, and he was right in it. I put it in his bed, but may see if it'll work to designate a place on my bed for him to sleep so I can actually move my legs. I'm glad he likes it.

Indeed, they all have my thanks. You know those master sergeants, tough as nails! I spent the first 18 years of my life in the Army and he stayed in for years after that. I love the photo with Chuffy. I never knew my maternal grandfather, but I like his horse.

Good! I have one of those alarms, but he's set at 3am. Between him and my bladder, I haven't a chance to sleep much later.

I take it he is feeling better? Good morning.

I’m a southern girl. Grew up with buttermilk for drinking and cooking, though I don’t buy it often anymore.

I don’t think buttermilk ever goes bad. Or not for a long time anyway. I’m known to keep it for months and still use it for cooking with no problems.

Actually I did fiddle with the phone a bit. It has a little on-screen adjustment for exposure and I used that to darken the photo to match the actual conditions. Would have been too light otherwise.

Thanks! No special settings on the phone. I’ve been experimenting with the scene selection mode on the camera. On previous experiments I preferred the camera in low light, but this time I like the phone best.

I hate those reminders, over and over and over.

Hah. Very good. I'm not going to do well with this one either, but some people are being really creative.

The moon is a little blurred, I think, but for hand-held I have no complaints.

I'm glad! I'm a little hesitant because I expect it could get old and boring fairly fast for some people, but it won't last forever. It got me out in the dark today for a 45 minute walk that probably wouldn't have happened otherwise, so there's that!

Thanks. That's my favorite, too. The others were just taken as experiments, not intended to be particularly good or interesting.

Isn't it? For me, seeing the results like this side-by-side is really useful. I find the phone does a great job with food, too. Not sure if I've tried the camera but I'm happy with the phone for that.
