How low can you go

Success!  I promised some improved photography and here it is.  The ivy is perfectly clear with the fence fuzzy in the background.  
 A couple of shoots of lavender are clear and the rest fuzzy.  If they are all clear, it just looks messy.  Yes, I have a two lavender bushes that I run my fingers over every time I come up the front walk.  Don´t hate me.

 As I said before, I was not happy while I was taking the 152 shots, the best of which you see here.  For Troy, the consolation of listening to me complain was seeing me rolling around on this horrible pebbly sidewalk trying to get shots of something besides Cuddles tail.
 I had shots of Cuddles with mulch, Cuddles with sticks, Cuddles with pine cones, Cuddles with weeds, Cuddles with ivy, Cuddles with roses, Cuddles with dandelions, Cuddles with nerf darts.  I had no idea he could find so much to play with in such a short time.
 His favorite spot, as you saw above, is at Troy´s feet.  Here is the opposite photography effect, where you want everything in focus.
 This flower is the size of my thumbnail.  Lucky for you, none of the pictures of ants an the lavender came out.
 Wyatt and I went for a Mommy Date to a rooftop terrace bar.  I cannot believe we have such a fabulous place just five minutes from our house.
He got a non-alcoholic fruity cocktail that tasted like raspberries and blackberries blendered with sugar.  Yummy!  I got tinto de verano, aka sangria, aka wine cooler.  But it sounds so much more exotic if you call it Summer Wine.
