MOCHA AND CREAM

Alert Hakuna
Hakuna strikes an attentive pose, flashing her baby blues. [Click to embiggen.]

This morning Hakuna had parked herself on the landing of our front staircase, a perfect place to stretch out and catch a few z’s in the warmth of the morning sun. She was relaxed and comfortable, so much so that she made no attempt to leave when I brought out the Nikon.

I took a few shots of her as she reclined, her coloring reminding me of nothing so much as a warm cup of mocha and cream... but when she sat up and looked at me with those piercing blue eyes, I knew I had the picture I wanted. Sometimes you just have to wait until the moment is right.

  1. Ahhhhh. Thank you so much, Elisson.

    Please pet Hakuna for me. What a lovely, lovely lady.

  2. I put Hakuna full screen, and stared eyes-to-eyes. She never moved, or blinked. I'm the one who gave up. I felt she could see my inner self. Very intimidating. She has class...
