The Kitten Portal has opened once again. This time we managed to get the Momma inside to deliver safely. And boy howdy was she ready. The very next morning she popped out five healthy babies. Everyone is now about a week old, has doubled in size and has a LOT of energy when it comes to mealtime.
A cuddle puddle of five kittens sleeping soundly with bellies full of milk. A little Momma cat sits next to the cuddle puddle. She has cream fur withbrown points and light blue eyes A three day old tabby kitten sits in a green milk glass bowl resting on a food scale. He weighs 152 grams, his tiny face peeks over the edge. The same tabby kitten sleeps on his back, next to his family. He has spots on his white belly where the stripes end and his little paws are curled up on his chest.

Indolent. I know
A sleek black cat lies sleepily on the arm of a big leather sofa, backlit by the light coming through a large industrial window. She is on a rich purple blanket and over her head hangs the large green fenestrated leaves of a mature Monstera plant.

Did anyone order an extra grandé mocha choco-latté?
A bathroom sink, white, round, bowl shaped. Nothing special about it really. Oh and there is a giant fluffy seal point (espresso points with dark latte cream body) ragdoll cat lounging in it.

A twisted and knarly tree I found at the top of a hill in Joshua Tree, CA. I’m not sure if the type, some sort of small pine. Its bent, twisted form shows a lifetime of being shaped by wind and sun.

Bah, who needs air anyway. #LAFires
A screenshot of the air quality map in the LA area. The map is dark purple over most of the city, indicating a very high AQI (air quality index) of 400 or above.

Merry Christmas to everybody who participated in #ArtAdventCalendar! It’s been great connecting with all of you.
Medium shot of the lower branches of a brightly decorated Christmas tree. The tree skirt of plus fake fur meanwhile has been rumpled into a big mess upon which lies a very cosy little black cat. She looks a the camera with glassy green eyes. There have been many zoomies but now she rests.

#ArtAdventCalendar Christmas Eve
In the desert outside of Los Vegas stands The Seven Magic Mountains. 7 towers made out of 5 giant boulders stacked one on top of the other. Each bolder is painted a bright solid color seemingly at random.

A hot air balloon shaped like a big yellow Cheetah face, with a muzzle and everything. It’s on the ground after just being inflated at dawn and sits among other balloons in varying stages of readiness.

Why do they stop dancing as soon as I come into view?

#ArtAdventCalendar Day 18
#LandscapePhotography #Sunset #PowerLines #dance
Seen from a car traveling North on a divided highway, the setting sun casts a golden orange glow behind a foreshortened line of towers holding high tension power lines. The tower closest to camera looks as if it’s just shuddered to a stop. In the background her friends continue their dance across the plains.

Sunlight glows down through the gaps in a canopy of Redwood Trees. It’s so bright that the trees are cast in silhouette.

A collection of round green barrel cactus all pointing towards the light of sunset. They form a variety of family clusters and the serene sunlight shining through their spines gives them glowing halos.
