P365 Day 200: On cats and giraffes

This is not the face of a cat who is enjoying having her picture taken. Not that I can blame her; it was about the 18th take of the night, and even pretty girls have their limits.



The pretty girls also have to have touch-ups, such as the removal of our phone numbers from Fred's collar. Yeah, I know I'm not so good with The Photoshops, but color me clone-happy. (By the way, you can totally get lost in that Photoshop Disasters website. Example.)

By the way, I'm interested in donating a giraffe or three to One Million Giraffes, which is about as simple as the name implies. Basically, this dude made a bet that he could collect a million giraffes online by the end of 2011. From the stats on the site: "So far I've got 536,715 giraffes, so I need 463,285 more and I have 339 days left."

The only rules are that you have to make it yourself and you can't use a computer. You can include as many giraffes in your picture as you want, and you can use any medium (drawing, photos, sculpture). I've had this site tabbed for days now, browsing it occasionally. It's hard to pick favorites because they're all so different, but I really like this one.

Anyway, I'll probably draw (... or create in some way) a couple of giraffes. I'd love it if you guys would too. It's not like I'm asking you to document a year of your life in photos. (Ahem. No one is that crazy.) So make a giraffe, post it and send me linkies.

P.S. Day 200! I have made it to Day 200. Way past the halfway point. This calls for a toast: "To 165 more days! Huzzah!"
