CBWC: Close Ups
Close-ups are sometimes macros and other time, head shots or portraits. Macros are for flowers. Humans are portraits, or as we used to call them, “head shots.” Portraits. I used to do a lot of portraits, but in recent years, not so many. As we get older, many of us avoid close-ups. I look at me and I think “YE GODS, NO CLOSE-UPS!” Time does things to us. But I take a lot of flower and bird and dog close-ups. That’s got to count for something!
El Duque, the doggo!

You can literally count the whiskers on El Duque’s face and your granddaughter is a beauty.

I didn’t think that shot would come out, but I had my macro lens on the camera and he got close enough so El Duque is a macro 😀 Usually he just like sticking his nose into the lens. It is VERY hard to get dog nose imprints off the lenses.
Kaitlin in a beauty. She’s almost 10 years older now than she was in that picture, but she’s still gorgeous.

The Junco, especially, is beautiful. El Duque–one ear up, one down. How can you not love that face?!

He drives Garry crazy, but I suspect he still misses the Scotties. I think he’s a GEAT dog.

She has managed to combine the good parts of both sides of the family. She got my eyes, her mother’s nose, and a heart-shaped face. The camera has always loved her.
