Teri Soares December 06, 2007

Thanks, Karen. I was just about to recruit Ted's help for a little shooting on this, what has turned out to be, very rainy, cold day. I hope he'll say "cheese" for me. Maybe if I give him some!

Mitch Spence level-classic December 08, 2007

My, you've been playing with a lot of fun stuff, Teri. This has got to be a pet mousie, and what a lovely image you've created with his or her cooperation. #5184256

Teri Soares December 08, 2007

Thanks, Mitch. Yes, Ted is a pet and loves the treats he gets when he plays for pictures. He didn't want to wear the Santa hat, though.

Cindy Bendush level-classic December 09, 2007

How adorable! And what a cute title too!!! Does Ted play with the kitty? #5186158

Teri Soares December 09, 2007

Our silly cat is afraid of the mouse. She'll approach when he's in his exercise ball, but for the most part she's just a watcher! One day I'll catch that scene!

Colleen Farrell December 13, 2007

Very cute image, Teri! I wouldn't be surprised if we see this as POTD (as well as contest winner) soon! #5203957

Teri Soares December 13, 2007

Colleen, thank you so much! I entered it at the very end of November (30th) and it got passed over for an EFP, so I reentered it right away at the beginning of this month. I'd be happy with a finalist since I've never gotten one before. Your comments made me smile!

Eve Sweatman December 13, 2007

Hi Teri,
Good luck! I'm keeping my eye on this little guy, I hope you do well! Your photography is beautiful!

Eve, you have made my day! I want to do some more shots with Ted as soon as I have time!

Thank you VERY much!

Carol Teal December 13, 2007

So cute Teri! I am glad to read you reentered it because I couldn't figure out why my comment wasn't here. I knew I had previously commented on this image, even mentioning a children's book about a mouse. #5206023

Teri Soares December 13, 2007

Yes, you did, Carol. Our photogroup had a long discussion about re-entering images that got passed over and most felt it was the thing to do. I had never tried it, but yours and some of the other comments made me think it would be worth a try. I'm glad I did! And, I really appreciate your taking the time to comment again! You are a jewel, my friend!
