# About me

If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you;
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowance for their doubting too:
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or, being lied about, don't deal in lies,
Or being hated don't give way to hating,
And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise;

If you can dream---and not make dreams your master;
If you can think---and not make thoughts your aim,
If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same:.
If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
And stoop and build'em up with worn-out tools;

If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings,
And never breathe a word about your loss:
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: "Hold on!"

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with Kings---nor lose the common touch,
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,
If all men count with you, but none too much:
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds' worth of distance run,
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And---which is more---you'll be a Man, my son!

Rudyard Kipling

Hello! Thank you for looking at my work! I actually built my own softbox and just angled it to the way I thought looked best. The worklights though were just to reflect the light off the ceiling.

Her name is Minx and she is a charmer. She's 13 years old and still thinks like a kitten. She's rarely away from me i presently sitting in the window next to me looking out. She'll wait by the door when I go out later to shoot the sky and not be happy until I come back in. I think she might need some Prozac... *G*

My cat's name is Lottie, and she is pretty old. We don't know for sure, though. She's around 9 we think. She's such a sweetie! Your cat sounds adorable

Yeah. Generally my posts are sans processing. It's the real thing with me. Occasionally, I'll crop or resize, but for the most part the picture is exactly as how I saw it. It's easy to photoshop, reality is hard.
