This week's pet photography theme is "orange" - oranges (hey, it's Florida!), Gators (hey, it's Florida), or perhaps a pumpkin - it's fall.  Well, I decided on getting a pumpkin and I had this wonderful idea that maybe I could get little Ollie to stand behind the pumpkin, put her front legs on the pumpkin and stand up a little bit taller.  Dreaming...yep, I was dreaming (maybe tomorrow, but not today).  First asking Ollie to come out by herself without her sister must have made her think she was in trouble.  So, I took her out by the pumpkin (I bought a large one, that may have been my first mistake.

Ollie looked at the pumpkin and wanted to run and hide.  Not much for new things apparently.  Eventually she figured out it wasn't going to hurt her, but the pumpkin was to close to her size and well, she wasn't sure.  Maybe I should have taken her with me to the pumpkin patch?

Needless to say, I realized that I wasn't going to get the photo I had in mind and the deadline for turning in my photography blog was looming....so at this point, I figured I had to settle for a little less than what I was hoping for and perhaps try another day with Ollie (but that would probably be after the deadline).
