Introducing.…Willow!

She makes a won­der­ful pho­to­graphic sub­ject and her con­stant play gives me plenty of prac­tice in cap­tur­ing motion. My daugh­ter insisted upon buy­ing her a pink col­lar and I think it suits her rather well. For more pho­tos of her, please visit her pho­to­set in my Flickr photostream.
