Urine Test?

I 100% agree with this statement.


Like a lot of folks in this state, I have a job. I work, they pay me. I pay my taxes and the government

distributes my taxes as it sees fit. In order to get that paycheck, I am required to pass a random urine

test with which I have no problem. What I do have a problem with is the distribution of my taxes to

people who don't have to pass a urine test.

Shouldn't one have to pass a urine test to get a welfare check because I have to pass one to earn it for

them? Please understand, I have no problem with helping people get back on their feet. I do, on the

other hand, have a problem with helping someone sitting on their A--, doing drugs, while I work. . .

Can you imagine how much money the state would save if people had to pass a urine test to get a public

assistance check?

She is always a fun subject to photograph. It is fun to try to get her in the pose that you want and that is a hard thing. Cats have a mind of their own and do not obey very well! She is a very temperamental cat to say the least!

I love this pose because of the way that the light catches her hair as she is sitting on the floor. The long ear shadow on her back is really pointed and distorted because of the angle that the sun is coming through the window.

Exposure: 0.077 sec (1/13)
Aperture: f/4.5
Focal Length: 70 mm
ISO Speed: 200

This was an experiment i did in selective Depth Of Field. It was very windy when i took this series of photos. I placed the front of the wood in sharp focus and the rest of the material out of focus. I love the grass being blurry and having a good Bokeh. Some of the wood is also blurry as well that is not in the directly focused area.

Exposure: 0.005 sec (1/200)
Aperture: f/4
