Pictures: Leaftime!

I groomed Elsa today in preparation for her surgery on Tuesday. (WORRY. PANIC.) So I thought I'd take pictures of her while a) she was clean and b) it was still warm enough to take pictures outside. She loves Crunchy Leaf Rain season. Also, it's been a couple of months since I took pictures, and she's starting to look more like a real Papillon rather than a frumpy guinea pig. She's actually developed little tan freckles on her muzzle.

She also has developed a love for clothes. She shoves her head into them and refuses to let me take them off, usually preferring to nap in them instead. So I endeavor to at least buy her things that are marginally cute.

Yes, that's a Burberry print leash and collar. Yes, her sweater has side buttons.

Many leaves had to die for these photos.

I think I like the sepia tones - the lighting at the time lent itself well to high-contrast, low-saturation coloring.

I'm thinking of sending a few to her breeder - which do y'all like best?
