Farmer Life 168

 This is a follow up post to the previous one.  If you missed it make sure to go back and look at it for updated conformation shots of the January/February kids.  They are getting so big!  I had to split them up because there were too many photos for one post.  I definitely failed at getting conformation shots of these kids (it's almost impossible when they are this young) and the light was fading fast so a lot of them were blurry, but you can still enjoy how adorable they are! First up is Amethyst and her twins. Nursing her twins.  It's so weird seeing my baby girl being a mama to her kids. She is such a pro.  You would never guess she is a first time mom. Her younger buckling. So cute with those same blue eyes. Amethyst being photogenic.  I love her beard!  Her youngest.  I can't get over how cute he is!  Amethyst is looking so good! They tired out quickly because they were playing the whole time I was photographing the older kids...

I went outside armed with my camera and a goal...  to take good conformation (from the side) photos of all of the kids.  If you've ever tried to get good pictures of goats standing square then you know how frustrating it can be.  I think what frustrated me more than their lack of cooperation was how quickly the good light died this evening.  It lasts for such a short time and I get so engrossed in what I'm doing that I waste time and then miss out on it.  This camera gets blurry in low light, so some of the pictures aren't very good, but some of them turned out really great!  I can always try again so I'm happy I got some good ones.  First up is Kamikaze! At a slight angle, but still cute! Good angle, almost square.  I got a great one of him the other day so I'm not bothered. Then it was Wildfire. This is a really good one, decent angle and square stance. This one is good too.   He isn't supposed to be looking at the camera, but I actual...
