This is Mr. Crumb’s sleepiest time of the day. And that’s saying something. Carrying the new-old camera around, but until I get my eye in, I’ll just keep posting cat pics.

Still playing with the XE1, natch. It’s old. But not as old as the last one I was using. So I don’t have to restrict it to bright daylight. This arm of the couch is Trinket’s current top fave evening spot.

Every so often they sleep snuggled up like when they were babies. Slow photography months for me. Today I spent a mind frazzling time learning about 5 months worth of Javascript in 24hrs. #fakingittilyouremakingit might be the single strongest way to learn. They should teach airline pilots that way. “Just get in the cockpit. Sound confident on the intercom. Google the startup procedure. One of our experienced pilots will email you back within two hours if you get really stuck. #bigkittens #gremmies #catsofinsta #salaciouscrumb #effietrinket #crumb #trinket #sleepycats #capesummer ...

My daft boy derping out with his tongue out.

Summertime sleepiness for Skitten and her no.1 fan, Mr. Salacious Crumb.

We finally saw a spotty cat. This was yesterday. Quite a scrum of cars. We saw one better today though that @withoutaleaf got some nice pics of.

I hate to brag… actually I love to brag about stuff that’s inconsequential… but this was lion sighting 4 out of 8 so far since Wednesday. Four of those were today. First up was a set of heavy boys who were shaking up the morning bush with their calls. Photographically speaking, not the best day. But I used some 19th Century style photo printing techniques to make the most of this. Only it’s a lot easier on digital where you don’t have to wave bits of card under enlargers for set numbers of carefully planned seconds.

We got up at 4 this morning to go look for these lions in the hopes that they’d be doing something in la crepescule du matin. Well, at least they weren’t hiding under a bush.

Seen in the March ‘77 @natgeo, cats serve a luxuriant mouse. A satire from 1100 bc. Still relevant. Pic by Victor R. Boswell.

I’m not sure this is ok.
