Beanie Baby: Princess

Grace is visiting and something she tries to do every visit now is go through boxes and bags of her things that are still here "in storage." The goal this time was the collection of "stuffed animals" (or "plush toys"). Turns out she had more than 50 Beanie Babies, Teenie Beanie Babies and Beanie Buddies. My role today was to photograph them all, with Grace's goal of offering the ones she no longer wants on eBay. So although I had a shot of a Monarch butterfly — http://www.butterfliesandmoths.org/sighting_details/1103790 — today's post has to be a Beanie Baby.

Through this process, I discovered that my macro lens has lots of spots. Sigh. But I think cleaning a lens is a whole different task than cleaning a sensor!

That's what our children do when they visit which is not often! I've got a teddy out there which is a favourite!
